I enjoyed a lot of head-to-head testing on vermouths and Negronis. I find the Cocchi Storico much more complex and use it in most cocktails that expose the vermouth. OTOH, the Carpano is my choice for a Negroni (my notes):
Excellent bitter(sweet) with the Cocchi Storico, layered, orange glints and notes. Even better with the Carpano Antica Formula, which gives a more harmonious drink.

Interesting. I do have to point out that Carpano Classico is not the same as Carpano Antica. The Classico is what I mean as close to Cocchi Torino. They both have the vanilla, raisins, cocoa, spice and bitterness general profile.
