Around since 1872 in the Bordeaux region of France, Lillet blanc is an aperitif, a mixture of white wine made predominantly from Semillon, mixed with citrus liquers and then aged in oak barrels. One of the first tonic wines on the market, Lillet was made famous in the golden age of cocktails in New York, and was a key ingredient in the Vesper, a drink created by Ian Fleming for James Bond in Casino Royale.
