Can I clarify what’s being called for with vermouth Di Torino? Any Rosso/sweet vermouth, or should it be a more full bodied kind? I use Dolin rouge as my standard sweet vermouth.

The Guide (tm) categorises rosso vermouths into
* Rosso/rouge(sweet) inc Dolin rouge [467 recipes] "130g/L sugar, lightly/unaged"
* Full-bodied sweet (eg antica formula) [51 recipes] "antica style, sweet, fruity" was "aged"?
* Vermouth amaro - full-bodied (eg Punt e Mes) [41 recipes]
* Light vermouth amaro, eg Cardamaro
etc ..
So would the 'vermouth di torino' in this recipe map onto the 'full-bodied sweet' category?

Thanks! My bottle of carpano is definitely passed use by now… annoyingly they only seem to sell it in litre bottles here, other than online.
