Bottega Cinzano - 1757 Rosso Vermouth di Torino 1L

Cinzano 1757 G.I. Rosso pays homage to the founding fathers of the distillery. Created to honor the legacy that began in 1757, this small-batch vermouth showcases the best of Italian tradition. It is crafted using an old Piedmontese custom that highlights a rich blend of aromatics. The production is slow and careful, taking ninety days to complete. This allows the complex flavors to mature fully before the liquid is bottled.

In the glass, this vermouth displays a reddish-brown color with warm amber reflections. The nose is deep and complex. You will find scents of wood and roots that open up to notes of vanilla and dried fruit. There is also a distinct floral note from the wormwood. On the palate, the taste is mouth-warming and smooth. Flavors of dried fig mix with spices like cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon.

The finish is long and bittersweet, leaving a lasting impression of amber resin and licorice. This bottle is a perfect choice for those who appreciate history and quality. It is delicious enough to sip neat but also bold enough to stand up in classic cocktails. It makes an excellent base for a rich Negroni or a smooth Manhattan.
