Marolo Barolo Chinato 750ml
Description: | History,. The base is a several-year-old Barolo wine and therefore very mellow. It is enriched with a hydro-alcoholic infusion (2.2%) of herbs, roots, barks and natural spices with the addition of 15% sugar. It is aged 2 years in 60 gallon barriques. Maestro Paolo Marolo works with about 40 different ingredients, but the main botanical component is the chincona bark, known as quinine. Great as a digestivo and as an accompaniment to chocolate desserts (and ice cream). It is also an appealing aperitif. Tasting Notes,. intense aroma of red cherry, quinine bark, citrus peel and cloves. The aromatics are very well integrated on the palate, giving a smooth and sophisticated wine, a perfect digestif. The tannins and acidity are both softer than the Barolo base wine. Sweet, intense, with Italian bitterness through the finish. |
