<H1>VYA Sweet Vermouth 750ML -- Quady Winery Shopping Cart</H1> <I>Imagine a tingling sensation, a feeling of warmth, a pleasant sweet bitterness, and the aroma of pumpkin pie.</I> <P> <IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/quady/images/VYA-S-07.jpg" ALIGN=right ALT="VYA Sweet Vermouth 750ML" NAME="VYA Sweet Vermouth 750ML" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10> Aromatized wines such as vermouth are wines to which botanicals (anything from the plant world) have been added. This appeals to me, as a winemaker, because it offers greater freedom of expression than wines made solely from grapes and because these wines have been mostly ignored for almost 200 years.<P> Vya vermouth is a new sort of vermouth, made without compromise, and intended to be drunk straight, as a delicious aperitif, as well as the essential ingredient in the world's best cocktails.<P> Imagine a tingling sensation, a feeling of warmth, a pleasant sweet bitterness, and the aroma of pumpkin pie. This is <A HREF=#sweet>Vya Sweet Vermouth</A>.<BR CLEAR=all><br> <A NAME="sweet"><FONT SIZE=+1><B>Vya Sweet Vermouth</B></FONT></A><BR> Vya sweet vermouth, inspired by the best Italian sweet vermouths, is all about sensations which stimulate the taste buds, producing a mouth-watering effect. Vya sweet induces a warm tingling in the mouth with a subtle balance of bitter and sweet. According to classic references, sweet muscat is the preferred base wine for sweet vermouth. For Sweet Vya, a special base wine using Orange Muscat and Valdepenas (for its red fruit tones) was made. The botanicals consist of bark, roots, seeds, and citrus rind. Cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and galangal (wild asian ginger), are some of the constituents.<P> <p>GOLD MEDAL: Jerry Mead's New World I, Orange County Fair, San Francisco Fair International, California State Fair, San Francisco Fair.<br> Special Award: Orange County Fair - 4 Star Gold.<br> Silver Medal: Dallas Morning News Int'l, San Francisco Chronicle, Jerry Mead's New World, Orange County Fair.</p> <A HREF=#quotes>See what people are saying about Vya.</A> <BR><BR> <HR noshade><BR> <FONT SIZE=+1><B>Facts about Vya Sweet Vermouth</B></FONT><BR> <UL> <LI>Our favorite Vya aperitif is half sweet and half extra-dry Vya, on the rocks, with a twist of orange.</LI> <LI>Vya sweet vermouth was awarded a major trophy, for "Aromatized Wine" at the 1999 London Wine Challenge.</LI> <LI>Vya sweet vermouth was the secret ingredient in the winning manhattan in Maker's Mark's 1999 San Francisco manhattan competition.</LI> <LI>Vya sweet makes a better Rob-Roy.

(<I>Vya sweet not only received a gold medal but a newly created <B>Aromatized Wine Trophy.</B></I>)<BR><BR> -Simon Woods, Wine Magazine<BR><BR><BR><BR> "But one more fortified Trophy was awarded for the best aromatic fortified wine.

Since most vermouths are made from the leftovers of the winemaking process, it is understandable that martini drinkers like my wife insist on just 'holding the vermouth near the gin.' But a bottle of VYA Vermouth from the inventive hand of dessert wine producer Andy Quady has forever transformed her martinis."<BR><BR> -Charles Olken, Los Angeles Times<BR><BR><BR><BR> "Vya is fruity and fragrant in a way that no other vermouth on the market comes close to achieving, and it adds wonderful highlights of dried flowers and sweet spices to the juniper-infused gin."<BR><BR> -Charles Olken, Los Angeles Times<BR><BR><BR><BR> <B>100 BEST WINES 100 BEST BUYS WINERIES OF THE YEAR</B> "...With turn-of-the-century Martinis back in fashion (i.e. gin Martinis, with both vermouth and a dash of orange bitters) ..." "On the subject of Martinis, remember that they are cocktails and not simply chilled glasses of gin (or vodka). Vermouth is a necessity, as Californian Andrew Quady will be quick to tell you His new Vya Vermouths, ...are like most California wines, plumper and more assertive than many of their European Counterparts. Vya Dry will kick up the flavors in your martini a notch, while the cinnamon and clove-scented Vya Sweet makes a strong case for being sipped on its own over ice."<BR><BR> -David Lynch, Wine and Spirits ANNUAL BUYING GUIDE<BR><BR></P> <P><B>Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/quady/Category1" TITLE="Wines and More">Wines and More</A>:</B> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/quady/Product4 TITLE="1997 LBV (Late Bottled Vintage) 750ML">1997 LBV (Late Bottled Vintage) 750ML</A> -- Received extra time in the barrel for softening and to develop complexity.
