COCCHI ROSA AMERICANO APERITIVO 750ML

Cocchi Rosa Americano Aperitivo is a stylish Italian aromatized aperitif wine (Americano rosso) from Giulio Cocchi in Piedmont, Italy, known for its vibrant color, balanced botanical complexity, and refreshing bittersweet profile.

What It Is

This aperitivo is a wine‑based Italian aperitif made from a blend of Piedmont red wines (often Brachetto and Malvasia) that’s fortified and infused with a mix of botanicals and spices — including gentian, cinchona, citrus zest, ginger, vanilla, and rose petals — giving it a naturally rosy hue and aromatic depth.

1. Category: Aromatized wine / aperitif (Americano rosa style)
2. Origin: Piedmont, Italy
3. ABV: ~16.5% (wine‑like and low‑alcohol)

Tasting Profile

Appearance: Clear, vibrant rose or light Bordeaux red.

Aroma: Fresh red berries (strawberry, raspberry, cherry), rose petals, citrus zest, mild vanilla and spice.

Palate: Bright red fruit and citrus upfront, with a balance of sweet and bitter botanical notes. Herbs (gentian), subtle clove or ginger spice, and floral character unfold into a light, crisp finish.

Finish: Refreshing and mildly bitter with lingering fruit and herbal complexity.

Style & Uses

Cocchi Rosa sits between a classic vermouth and a bitter aperitif: more aromatic and fruity than many amaros but with a gentle bitterness that stimulates the appetite.

1. Serve chilled on its own over ice with an orange or grapefruit twist.
2. With soda, tonic, or sparkling wine for a light spritz.
3. Great in cocktails as a substitute for rosé vermouth or to brighten spritz and low‑alcohol drinks.
