Cocchi Americano Aperitivo Rosso (750 ml)

Throughout its history, Giulio Cocci has used the aperitif wine Americano profile to highlight the fine aromatic grapes of Piemonte. In Cocchi Americano Rosa, the Brachetto d’Acqui wine base provides the white rose and rich berry notes typical of the famous sparkling wine of the same variety, while the addition of rose and ginger to the traditional bitter base provides a rounder profile.

The simplest Cocchi Rosa cocktails are often the best—just add club soda or sparkling wine. A slice of lemon or grapefruit lifts everything up and stimulates the nose and brain. These drinks are all-purpose aperitifs—great with salty snacks (particularly Parmigiano-Reggiano), perfect before a meal at home or in a restaurant, where the longer shelf-life and lower pour-cost give great value to bars and customers alike. The ginger note in Cocchi Rosa also adds depth to stirred whiskey cocktails, particularly with younger ryes and lighter Scotch and Irish whiskeys. Cocchi Rosa shines in sour drinks; add a splash to a Paloma, or shake in a gin or tequila sour for a floral edge and bright pink color.
