About this vermouth
Cappelletti's Il Specialino is an Italian aperitivo americano rosso, a bittersweet, wine-based aperitif from a producer long associated with traditional alpine herb liqueurs. It sits within the broader family of vermouths and americanos, distinguished by its wine base and botanical bitterness rather than a neutral spirit foundation.
Expect a balance of bitter gentian and rhubarb-like tartness against sweet red fruit and dried herb notes, lighter and more wine-forward than Campari. Serve chilled over ice with a splash of soda, use it to anchor a Spritz, or pour alongside charcuterie and hard cheeses before dinner.
