Story

At Bar Basso in Milan in 1972, bartender Mirko Stocchetto reached for the wrong bottle while making a Negroni and topped it with sparkling wine instead of gin. Sbagliato means 'mistaken'. The mistake stuck, and fifty years later, in 2022, a viral interview clip made it the most ordered drink of the summer.
