In Cocchi Americano Rosa, the Brachetto d'Acqui wine base provides the white rose and rich berry notes typical of the famous sparkling wine of the same variety, while the addition of rose and ginger to the traditional bitter base provides a rounder profile. Just add club soda or sparkling wine, or add a splash to a Paloma. Producer Description.
