About this product
A Venetian Classic Reimagined.
Gran Bassano Rosso is Poli Distillerie’s bold expression of Italian vermouth, rooted in the traditions of Bassano del Grappa. Crafted from premium Merlot wine grown in Veneto, it’s enriched with more than 20 botanicals, including local mountain herbs, vanilla, cloves, and dried orange peel. The result is a vermouth that strikes the perfect balance between sweetness, spice, and bitterness.
Unlike mass-market vermouths, Gran Bassano Rosso is refined, complex, and designed for both sipping and mixing. Deeply aromatic and layered, it reflects the heritage of Venetian aperitivo culture while offering something new for today’s drinkers. In Ireland, it feels like the perfect link between Italy’s long tradition of aperitifs and the growing appetite for craft cocktails.
Why we love it:
Gran Bassano Rosso is more than just a cocktail ingredient — it’s a spirit with a story. Its balance of warm spice, citrus zest, and gentle bitterness makes it versatile: the heart of a perfect Negroni, yet equally enjoyable over ice. For Irish vermouth lovers, it delivers authenticity and elegance in every pour.
