Pirlo

The Pirlo is a bar standard outside the IBA list: 2 ingredients, built in the glass and served in a wine glass. That makes 173 ml in the glass: a middling measure.

Ingredients

• 50 mlCampari
• 100 mldry white wine

Method

1. Pour the white wine into an ice-filled wine glass.
2. Add the Campari and stir once.
3. No soda: that is what sets it apart from a bicicletta.

Garnish: Garnish with an orange slice.

What it tastes like

bitter → sweet

Bitterness leads: 2.8 out of 10, carried by Campari. That makes it the 10th most bitter of 186.

round → sour

Citrus shows, but this is no sour: 53rd of 186, and it comes from dry white wine.

light → strong

14.2% after dilution: the middle band, 90th of 186.

Among the five around it on the map it is the only one built on vino.
