Critics Tasting Note, Wine Entusiast 2017 "Among the canon of Italian spirits, Aperol and the Aperol Spritz cocktail are classics, available at a growing range of America's best bars. The lurid red hue is recognizable from across the room. It's light on every count—in terms of alcohol content, sweetness level and texture. The gentle sweet-bitter profile goes down easy—especially when lightened with bubbles."

Wine Entusiast 2014 "Sophisticated and delightful aromas of tangerine and rhubarb. The palate entry is delightfully citrusy and sweet; the midpalate phase offers just enough herbal bitterness to balance. Ends up refreshing, orangey sweet and delectably herbal. This deserves to become a popular pre-dinner quaff."

The Winemaker - "Hardly bitter at all, more like a zesty orange cordial with faint bitterness. Flavours of zesty orange marmalade and pink grapefruit predominate."

K&L - "Aperol's unique flavor and color is achieved through a subtle blend of bitter orange, gentian, rhubarb and an array of herbs and roots--using a secret recipe that has been unchanged since its first creation in 1919. Try the classic Aperol Spritz: 3 parts Aperol, 2 parts Prosecco, 1 part soda over ice with an orange twist. The ultimate in thirst-quenching cocktails."

An orange/red coloured Italian aperitif. created in 1919, and made of an infusion of rhubarb, cinchona (the tree from which quinine comes), gentian and several other herbs.

The Barbieri Company was established in 1891 by Giuseppe Barbieri in Padua, Italy to produce and market a wide range of Liqueurs, The company's most famous and enduring product, Aperol, was especially created in 1919 by his two sons, Luigi and Silvio for Padua International Fair, a large exhibition attracting international visitors held in their home town. Silvio Barbieri named Aperol after the French word for aperitif, 'Apero', which he had learnt on a recent trip to France and seemed appropriate for their new bitter-sweet liqueur.

Veneto is a substantial and increasingly important wine region in the northeastern corner of Italy.

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit "A fabulously easy drinking sparkling wine; the inviting bouquet shows Gala apple, lemon zest, nectarine and floral aromas, followed by a juicy palate that is vibrant and refreshing. It is fruit forward and comfortingly tasty with a lingering crisp finish."

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit "Beautifully fragrant and inviting, the bouquet shows white stone fruit, lemon zest, floral and almond characters. The palate is lively and refreshing, and offers excellent fruit purity as well as subtle complexity, leading to a lingering vibrant finish. Delightfully drinkable."

Winemaker "Extra dry with crisp acidity - yet delicate and complex with fruity notes of peach, green apple and melon. Dress with oysters."

Bandini is a specialist Prosecco producer based in Valdobbiadene. Made in an Extra Dry style this Prosecco has all the classic freshness and vibrancy one expects from the wines of the region. An aperitif style with a very fine mousse, this is made from high quality vineyards across the Veneto region.

The bouquet is delicate and complex with fruity notes of peach and green apple and secondary notes of acacia and wisteria. The palate is fresh and light with good acid balance and a creamy, harmonious mouthfeel and pleasing persistence.

Serve at 8-10°C. Ideal as an aperitif, Bandini Prosecco Extra Dry is a perfect accompaniment to hors-d’oeuvres and delicate first courses based on fish and shellfish.

The grapes are harvested at optimum maturity in the second half of September. After a very gentle crush the must is placed in stainless steel tanks to settle for decanting. The fermentation with selected yeasts is completed within 8-10 days at 18°C. The wine is then filtered and placed in closed stainless steel tanks for the secondary fermentation (Charmat Method) at a controlled temperature of 14-15 °C, with the addition of selected yeasts and saccharose. Once the wine has achieved the required pressure levels and alcohol/sugar balance, it is chilled to prohibit further fermentation ready for bottling.
