Origins

A long journey

Since antiquity, spices have been associated with wine. In Roman times the conditum paradoxum was a mixture of wine and honey; to this were added pepper, mastic (resin of the pistachio tree, Pistacia lentiscus), saffron, bay leaf and nard (Nardostachys jatamansiplante whose fragrant rhizome is used).

Roman expansion popularized spiced wines across Europe. The recipes of hypocras in the Middle Ages then brought sweeter notes; cinnamon, cloves and citrus fruits are also added.
