This is the JK.14 version of Aperol. A timeless classic, a great apéritif from Bassano. Orange, gentian root, Roman absinthe, quina and vanilla come together in a liqueur with a subtle fragrance and smooth flavour. Best served cold with soda and lemon zest to make the traditional aperitivo of Bassano, it is also used in the preparation of cocktails and long drinks. Use it to make a Spritz Molto Italiano:
Fill the glass with ice, and add the Rosso, prosecco, and soda water. Garnish with a slice of orange, and a green olive if you want to be a real Venetian!
Red fruits, spice and slightly gamey, smokey flavour. Tannins add a bit of structure but still soft. Finish is tart red fruit. Lots of flavour but won't overwhelm most meals. Great with aged cheeses.
