Lillet Blanc
34 proof/17% ABV
Pernod Ricard Group
Lillet is a blend of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc wine with 15% of fruit liqueurs flavored with oranges and herbs. Around 1985, the fortified wine was reformulated to reduce the quinine bitterness and balancing sweetness. This allows the spirit to highlight its floral and citrus notes as well as dryness from the Sauvignon Blanc.
