the
CULTURAL HEART
of the RIVIERA
Together Monte-Carlo and Monaco represent a unique blend born from the influence of their French and Italian neighbours throughout history, combined with fierce pride in tradition, savoir-faire and an inimitable epicurean lifestyle.

For centuries, the Principality attracted people from all over the world seeking to discover the best experiences and to enjoy every moment of their life. This makes it the undisputable worldwide reference in the most rooted, refined and multicultural luxury.

Like the principality of Monaco, Monte Carlo Vermouth is proud of its heritage, its influences, and ancestral know-how, as it is the embodiment and culmination of the most refined craftmanship and ingredients.

Expert Italian winemakers create Moscato d’Asti DOCG to form an unparalleled aromatic base using the whole grape, grown expressly for this purpose. The liquid is then blended with Côte d’Azur botanicals exclusively from expert distillers in the perfume capital of the world, Grasse. Known around the globe for the quality of is fragrances since the 18th century, it is where the finest luxury perfumes are made.
Finally, the liquid is made more exceptional with a touch of the Monégasque terroir: hand-picked rose petals from the principality’s rose garden to impart intrigue, elegance, and a divine taste.
