Lillet aperitif is a brand of French aperitif wine. It is a blend of 85% wine and citrus liqueurs made from a variety of oranges, matured in oak casks and available in red and white versions. While it has been produced since the late 1800s, the current formulation dates from 1987 and is relatively less bitter and sugary, and more fruit flavoured, than the historical one.
We love the depth of color, the texture and oomph of this class poster - powerful and very, very Art Deco. Robys (Robert Wolff) produced a variety of posters for alcohol companies, each more perfect than the next.
This poster is linen backed, in excellent condition and ready to frame. From a private collection.
