A brief look at the producer’s heritage and winemaking approach.

Lillet

Lillet is one of France’s most iconic aperitif producers, founded in 1872 by brothers Paul and Raymond Lillet in the village of Podensac, just south of Bordeaux. Wine merchants and distillers by trade, the brothers set out to create a distinctive Bordeaux aperitif, blending the region’s fine wines with fruit macerations and aromatic botanicals. Their creation, originally known as Kina Lillet, quickly became a symbol of French aperitif culture.

Throughout the 20th century, Lillet gained an international following, particularly in Britain and the United States, where it became a favourite in fashionable bars and classic cocktails. Today, every bottle is still crafted at Maison Lillet in Podensac, preserving more than 150 years of expertise while remaining true to its Bordeaux roots.

FAQs For Lillet Blanc Vermouth

How is this vermouth made?

Made primarily from Bordeaux wines, including Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle, blended with natural citrus liqueurs and carefully selected botanicals to create its signature flavour profile. The blend is then matured in oak vats for several months, allowing the flavours to harmonise before bottling.

Is Lillet Blanc a vermouth?

Although often displayed alongside vermouth, Lillet Blanc is technically an aromatised wine rather than a traditional vermouth. Unlike vermouth, it does not rely on wormwood as its defining botanical, instead using a blend of fruit infusions that give it its distinctive citrus-forward character.

Should it be refrigerated?

Yes. Once opened, it should be refrigerated and ideally enjoyed within four to six weeks. Keeping it chilled helps preserve its freshness and delicate fruit flavours.

How should it be served?

Best served well chilled over ice with a slice of orange, lemon or grapefruit. It can also be used as the base for a variety of classic and modern cocktails.
