Ferdinand's Red Vermouth

The return to old traditions in harmony with new ideas has always been part of the history of the Saar and Moselle region. Ferdinand's - named after the co-founder of the VDP, the Royal Prussian forester Ferdinand Geltz (1851-1925) - is deeply rooted in the character and heritage of the Saar Valley. The Vallendar family has been producing the finest spirits in the idyllic village of Bilzingen-Wincheringen for many generations. Craftsmanship and alchemy are combined here in a proud tradition, firmly rooted in the region: the true essence of the Saar – an elegant combination of ancient artisanal traditions and innovation – distilled to perfection. The rough Devonian slate soils of the large steep slate slopes of the Saarburger Rausch and the cool climate of the Saar form the perfect basis for the first Riesling vermouth in the world. The minerality and fruit of the Saar Riesling, the bitterness of the vermouth and the floral, spicy aromas of the regional herbs and flowers give this vermouth wine from the Saar valley its unique lightness and elegance.
