Description
The Aperitivo Cappelletti, endearingly known locally as just “Specialino”, may be the oldest style of the classic red bitter still in production. Unlike its larger commercial rivals, Cappelletti is less sweet and has a wonderful drying finish. Additionally, it still uses natural carmine color for a crimson red and retains a vinous texture from its wine base. It off ers a vibrant and fl avorful profi le, complemented by bitter undertones on a traditional wine base. This yields a Negroni or Spritz that is dry and refreshing in the fi nish. It is made by the Cappelletti family, along with a number of other exceptional aperitivi and amari, just outside of Trento in Alto Adige.
