Martini is sharing the moment through retail exclusives, 60949-MARTINI-Gran-Lusso-originalcommemorative labels, refreshing cocktails and one-of-a-kind collaborations.

Martini’s new packaging for its award-winning Italian sparkling wines of Prosecco, Rose, Asti and Brut features a vine motif and its heritage crest with its 1863 foundation date.
