Aperol Aperitivo 1.0L

Aperol Aperitivo — Veneto, Italy 1.0L

Since 1919, Aperol has been Italy’s most beloved aperitivo — a bright, bittersweet liqueur whose secret recipe of bitter and sweet oranges, rhubarb, gentian, and a precise blend of herbs and roots has remained unchanged for over a century. Born in the Veneto, Aperol is the foundation of the Aperol Spritz, the aperitif ritual that transformed the way the world drinks before dinner. Light in alcohol at just 11% ABV, irresistibly refreshing, and earning 90 points from Wine Enthusiast, the 1.0L format is the bottle that keeps the Spritz flowing all evening.

The color is unmistakably bright orange. The nose is fresh and aromatic: bitter orange, rhubarb, and herbs with a gentle sweetness. On the palate, it is light and easy — a gentle sweet-bitter profile that goes down effortlessly, especially when lightened with bubbles. Versatile enough for quick toasts after a long day, relaxed Sunday brunches, or paired with traditional Venetian cicchetti — olives, tiny sandwiches, and local bites.

Wine Enthusiast 90 — “Among the canon of Italian spirits, Aperol and the Aperol Spritz cocktail are classics. Light on every count — alcohol content, sweetness, and texture. The gentle sweet-bitter profile goes down easy, especially when lightened with bubbles.”
