Grape Martinez – G’Vine Floraison
This vibrant cocktail with a lovely ruby-coloured hue is perfect for festive occasions – and a delectable alternative to the more usual Christmas tipples.
The Martinez cocktail is widely thought to be the precursor to Martini. In this fresh take on a great classic, Maison Villevert makes the grape the star of the show.
The Grape Martinez features the subtle combination of the grape flavours and all the smoothness of G’Vine Floraison and the sweet, fruity, vanilla notes of La Quintinye Vermouth Royal Rouge, made from pineau des Charentes.
