In 1846, Sir Joseph Dubonnet, a Parisian wine merchant and chemist, created Dubonnet Rouge aperitif. His proprietary blend became a popular medicinal aperitif throughout the world.
A distinct blend of grapes: ruby Cabernet and Muscat of Alexandria gives it rich and balanced flavor. There are hints of black currant, the essence of tea varietals and other ingredients that lend this wine a complexity of taste and potent body. Subtle notes of chocolate, and the soft sweetness of dark raspberries.
