Cappelletti Vino Aperitivo Liqueur

The Aperitivo Cappelletti, affectionately known as "Specialino" to locals, is one of the oldest styles of classic red bitters still in production. Unlike its larger competitors, Cappelletti is less sweet, with a pleasing dry finish and a natural crimson color from carmine. It offers a lively and flavorful profile with traditional wine undertones. This makes for a dry and refreshing Negroni or Spritz. Produced near Trento in Alto Adige by the Cappelletti family, it's a favorite for wine-and-beer establishments.

The modern Italian "Spritz" shares its history with Cappelletti in the Triveneto region, typically combining red bitter, wine, soda, and orange. Cappelletti is a cost-effective choice for stimulating appetites and pairs well with various beers. Its natural carmine color adds pride to the region, while modern red bitters use plant-based colorants like flowers and fruits.
