Made over a base wine of Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara from Daniele Piccinin, which is then steeped with a botanical tincture of thyme, helichrysum and rhubarb, before being fortified with alcohol and sugar.

The infusion comes together for a couple of months in tank before bottling, where it is then rested for a further three months before release. The bitters really sit to the front here, with a balance of rusty mineral, herbal and earthy vegetal flavours preceding a very long finish. Perfect with a twist of orange as a spritz, or part of the makings of a killer negroni.
