La Miraja Chinato
Description: | The only fortified wine of its kind produced from the red grape variety Ruché, this digestivo is labeled as Vino Aromatizzato Alla China because it does not follow the same dictates as Chinato from Barolo, where it was first developed by a pharmacist in the 1800s. This secret elixir is a blend of the winery's DOCG-level Ruché wine with herbs, spices, and botanicals. The essential ingredient is china (pronounced "kee-nah"), derived from the cinchona tree native to Southeast Asia whose bark produces quinine. Additional ingredients include wormwood, cardamom seed, cinnamon, and orange peel, all of which are left to macerate in a base of neutral grain spirits and then blended with Ruché. |
