Dolin is a French producer specializing in vermouth, based in the Savoie region of the French Alps. The house has been crafting traditional French vermouth using local alpine botanicals and herbs since the 19th century, representing one of the few remaining authentic French vermouth producers in a category largely dominated by Italian brands.
Dolin vermouths are distinguished by their use of Savoie white wines as a base, combined with carefully selected botanicals that reflect the alpine terroir of their mountain location. The production follows traditional methods, with the wines being infused with wormwood, herbs, and spices before being aged. This approach results in vermouths that tend to be more delicate and wine-forward compared to their Italian counterparts, with a cleaner, more herbaceous profile.
The current range includes the classic trio of French vermouth styles: a dry version that serves as an excellent aperitif, a blanc (sweet white) vermouth, and a rouge (red) vermouth. Each expression maintains the house's characteristic balance between the base wine and botanical complexity, making them suitable both for sipping neat and as components in classic cocktails.
