A full-flavoured Alentejo red with blackberry, wild cherry and red berries, layered with black pepper, eucalyptus, tea and toasted oak.

The finish is structured, savoury and quietly powerful, with enough freshness to keep the profile composed.
Mauro Vergano Americano Rosso Aperitivo
A Grignolino wine base brings vivid cherry fruit beneath a firmly bitter botanical frame. Gentian, wormwood and quinine give the palate structure, while bitter orange peel and savoury herbs add citrus lift and aromatic detail.
