Dolin dry is probably my favorite dry vermouth out there. At the very least, it's the best value and a mainstay at my home bar. As for Dolin rouge, I would say it's decent enough, but nowhere near as strong as some others.
The nose kind of reminds me of Martini & Rossi's sweet vermouth, with allspice and currants. It is pretty thin on the palate, with spice and caramel. The finish has no burn and is sweet with just a bit of bitterness.
This bottle is more of a run-of-the-mill sweet vermouth. It's not offensive, it just isn't that interesting. It is pretty cheap however, and if I had to choose this or Martini & Rossi I would lean towards this, but it's nowhere near as good as Carpano Antica and I'm not even sure it's as good as another cheap option in Cinzano.
