I had Chardonnay and Lillet Blanc in, so after reading others' comments I was in a bit of a quandary about which to go for. Glad I went for the original Chardonnay in the end, as it sits the cocktail in a nicely ambiguous place between sweet and dry that gives it an air of sophistication. Lillet Blanc would have made it unambiguously sweet.

…or maybe upping the camp factor by calling it a Gypsy Rose Lee? 😆

Had to substitute the green Chartreuse with Italicus, and it works a treat.

Using Select in place of Campari nicely toned down the bitterness in this wonderfully complex cocktail.
