Extracts, blending and filtration
Red vermouth brings wine and botanical extracts together, with Cinzano Rosso adding sugar, neutral alcohol and caramel to its wine base. Cinzano prepares botanical extracts, blends them with the wine base and other ingredients, then filters and lets the vermouth rest before bottling. This describes the producer’s process, not a universal recipe for all red vermouth.
Carpano’s Negroni
Carpano proposes equal measures of its Classico vermouth, bitter and gin, with ice and an orange slice. The producer describes spice, citrus and wormwood notes in the vermouth.
