Description

A litre bottle of Dubonnet Wine Aperitif, a fortified wine flavoured with herbs, spices, and quinine. This was bottled for duty free stores.

Dubonnet was first sold by Joseph Dubonnet in response to a competition run by the French government who were looking for a way to encourage their Foreign Legion to drink quinine, a bitter substance used to combat malaria. Dubonnet was also known as the Queen Mother's favourite drink.

This Dubonnet sold at our online auction for £14
