Antonio Benedetto Carpano invented the modern category of red vermouth in Turin, Italy, in 1786. His shop, situated directly opposite the Royal Palace, became an overnight sensation with Piedmontese nobility, establishing a legacy of botanical mastery that continues today under the Fratelli Branca distillers.
Crafted at the historic distillery & production estate in Milan using the original 1786 recipe created by Antonio Benedetto Carpano. This ancient recipe infuses select Italian white wines with mountain herbs, precious botanicals, and high-quality natural vanilla.
