Sweet vermouth aperitivo that brings herbaceous sweetness and a scarlet hue to cocktails and sipping. For hosts and cocktail fans, MARTINI Rosso Vermouth delivers familiar, crowd-pleasing flavour with aromatic depth. Is it the right staple for a well-stocked home bar?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Taste Profile: Sweet and herbaceous, light and balanced with a scarlet hue
  • Best for: Aperitivo lovers and home bartenders wanting a classic sweet vermouth
  • Not ideal for: Those who prefer dry vermouths or very low-sugar fortified wines

Made from red wines and infused with a selection of regional herbs. Best served neat, over ice or in classic Italian cocktails.


Versatile for Cocktails and Sipping – With a sweet red wine base infused with regional herbs

Red wines form the base while a selection of regional herbs is infused to add aromatic and flavour notes. The blend balances sweetness with herbal character to suit multiple serves.

Suitable for stirring into classic Italian cocktails or pouring over ice for an aperitivo; a single bottle works across both roles.

Balanced Sweetness and Colour – With a scarlet-hued red wine foundation

The red wine foundation contributes natural sweetness and the scarlet hue, while herb infusion shapes the overall palate. The result is a light, balanced vermouth rather than an overly heavy sweet liqueur.

Presents well in cocktails and neat pours, offering approachable sweetness without obscuring other ingredients.

Pairs Well with Salty, Rich Nibbles – Thanks to herb-infused sweetness

An herb-forward sweet profile complements fatty and salty foods by balancing savoury notes with aromatic sweetness. Producer guidance highlights cured meats and aged cheeses as ideal matches.

Makes an easy aperitivo match for mortadella and pecorino-style cheeses, elevating simple pre-dinner boards.
