Glowing red, the Negroni manages to be both sophisticated and simple at the same time and is definitely for a grown-up palate - for many it's simply too...
It is definitely in my top 40, but I find it a little too sweet when using equal parts. 1 1/4, 1, and 3/4 works better for me. Or sometimes I'll replace the vermouth with a 50/50 mix of vermouth and Aperol.
