Crafted in Piedmont, Italy, Mancino Rosso Vermouth is a masterfully blended sweet red vermouth made by renowned bartender Giancarlo Mancino. This artisanal vermouth begins with a base of Italian white wine, infused with 38 botanicals including sage, oregano, rhubarb, liquorice root, and dried orange peel. After maceration, the blend is sweetened and fortified to 16% ABV, resulting in a richly aromatic, bittersweet vermouth that elevates classic cocktails or stands on its own as an aperitivo.
Bouquet: Deep and fragrant. Aromas of dried herbs, orange zest, spiced plum, and soft cherry wood rise from the glass, supported by hints of cinnamon, wormwood, and cacao.
Palate: Velvety and complex. Bold flavours of burnt orange, dark cherry, and baking spice roll across the palate, balanced by a gentle bitterness and a sweet, herbal warmth. A hint of clove and red vermouth’s signature earthiness linger on a smooth, warming finish.
Food Pairing: A superb base for Negronis, Manhattans, and Americanos, or simply served over ice with an orange twist. Pairs beautifully with charcuterie, aged cheeses, grilled mushrooms, or dark chocolate truffles.
Cellaring: Best enjoyed within 6–8 weeks of opening for peak freshness. Store in the fridge once opened to preserve its aromatics.
Interesting Fact: Each Mancino Vermouth label is inspired by the glamour of 1950s Italian art and cinema—a nod to the golden age of aperitivo culture.
