What makes the perfect aperitivo? 🍸✨
nonno.berlin took home the Berlin Aperitivo Venue of the Year 2026 award, presented in partnership with .official, celebrating a place that turns aperitivo into more than just a drink. 🥂

For Bar Nonno, it’s about the whole experience: the atmosphere, the people around the table and that unmistakable Italian ritual of slowing down and enjoying the moment together.

And when Cinzano enters the conversation, there are two important questions to answer: Red or White? And which three words capture it best?

Watch the reel to find out. 👀

Because a great aperitivo is not just what’s in the glass. It’s the moment you create around it.

What does it take to build a legacy? ✨

received the Lifetime Achievement Award 2026, presented in partnership with , celebrating 64 years of history and three generations of an Italian family in Berlin. 🥂

For Franco Francucci, this recognition is not about one person or one career. It belongs to a family, beginning with his father’s arrival in Berlin and continuing through decades of change, challenges and growth, to a legacy that is now being passed on to the next generation.

A story shaped by the values he believes are at the heart of both gastronomy and community: adaptation, compromise and cooperation.

Because a lifetime achievement is not only about what you build, but about what you pass on.
