Wine Enthusiast
Review Date: 11/2016This silky, garnet-hued sipper features a double dose of bitter quinine, but don't worry, it doesn't read as especially bitter. It features an enticing spiced-cherry scent and a flavor that suggests cherry compote, with a violet lilt on the finish and just the right amount of bitter edge. Sip or mix. *Best Buy* (KN)

Notes
The name Dopo Teatro refers to the late-evening, "after theater" service at restaurants and cafes in Torino, a gathering time for a sip of something bittersweet and maybe a small bite to eat. This "vermouth amaro" (vermouth with added bitterness) uses Cocchi's classic Vermouth di Torino as its base. From there, winemaker Giulio Bava adds a number of additional botanicals, including chiretta flowers and a unique local gentian. The result is a robust amaro that retains the refreshing acidity of the original vermouth. Pair with spicy chocolate preparations or mix with your favorite intensely flavored spirits.
