Gherzi Vermouth Torino Tipo Amaro (c. 1970s)

The Gherzi Vermouth Torino Tipo Amaro is a fine representation of Italy’s vermouth tradition from the 1970s, a period when Turin’s vermouth makers were still exporting widely across Europe and beyond. The bold red-and-gold label with ornate flourishes and the use of the word “Tipo Amaro” (a bitter style vermouth) firmly places this in the mid-to-late 20th century Italian production style.

This expression would have delivered a richer, more robust profile than classic Rosso vermouths, with layers of dark caramel, bitter herbs, wormwood, and gentian, supported by spiced notes of clove, cinnamon, and licorice root. …

Rosso de Luxe - F.lli Gancia (1970's Bottling)

The *Amaro* from Fratelli Gherzi, in this rare 1970s bottling, is a fine example of Italy’s post-war herbal liqueur tradition—crafted to be enjoyed both as an aperitivo and a digestivo.

With over fifty years of bottle age, it offers not only its original bittersweet charm but also the mellow complexity that time brings.

In the glass, it would likely display a deep mahogany-brown hue with amber and ruby glints, reflecting both the richness of its botanical blend and the oxidative development from long ageing. …
