Sweetgrass's Vermouth is back! Our Vermouth is from Vidal Blanc grapes fermented dry, fortified with our Maine grown organic grape brandy, and flavored with botanicals that pair nicely with Back River Gin. https://t.co/w3oHrw8ktD

August in Maine is full of wild blueberries and so are many of our wines and spirits at Sweetgrass. Stop in for a tasting at our tasting rooms in Union or Portland.

It takes many hands to pick and process the ripe wild blueberries we use in our blueberry wines and spirits.
