Description
The *Bianco Aperitivo* from Giacomo Borgogno is a refined and elegant expression of Italian aperitivo culture, crafted by one of Piedmont’s most historic and respected wineries. Drawing on generations of expertise, Borgogno combines a carefully selected white wine base with a delicate infusion of botanicals—aromatic herbs, flowers, roots, and citrus peels—to create a drink that is both refreshingly vibrant and subtly complex.
In the glass, it gleams with a pale straw-gold hue, hinting at its brightness and freshness. The bouquet is enticing, offering notes of lemon zest, white flowers, and orange blossom, layered with gentle herbal tones and a whisper of spice. A subtle vinous character from the quality wine base adds depth and elegance.
On the palate, Borgogno’s *Bianco Aperitivo* is smooth, crisp, and beautifully balanced. Flavours of fresh citrus, delicate herbs, and a touch of bitter almond interplay with a light sweetness, leading to a clean, refreshing finish. The bitterness is gentle, making it approachable while still distinctly Italian in style.
Perfect served chilled over ice with a twist of lemon or an olive, it also mixes wonderfully with soda, tonic, or sparkling wine for a classic spritz. Giacomo Borgogno’s *Bianco Aperitivo* is not just a drink—it’s a celebration of timeless aperitivo tradition, infused with the craftsmanship and finesse of one of Italy’s great wine houses.
