Cocchi Americano means much more to Asti than a simple wine made with the infusion of herbs and spices. An aperitif par excellence, it is a taste of Asti’s gastronomic history going back to the 1900’s. Enjoyed with ice and soda at every corner of the town, it is still the perfect partner of long chats under the setting sun.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE

Spicy and sweet, with orange blossom, orange zest, elderflower and a hint of bitter herbs, with baked apples and pear drops developing in the glass.

PALATE

Complex but well-balanced, with a complimentary bitter and sweet character. Cloves and cinnamon sit alongside rich fruit, green herbs and citrus – orange and lemon zest. Behind that are more wine-like notes, providing a backdrop for the herbal, fruity and spicy flavours.

FINISH

A long and vibrant finish, balancing sweet citrus fruit and herbal bitterness before slowly revealing woody cinchona bark.
