Barolo Chinato DOCG Marchesi di Barolo

Barolo Chinato by Marchesi di Barolo is a fortified wine produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes.

The wine must be produced starting from Barolo wine that has already completed the minimum ageing period required by the disciplinary. The flavouring takes place by cold infusion in a hydroalcoholic solution of cinchona bark, gentian root, cardamom seeds and other minor spices such as vanilla beans. The aromatic infusion is added to the wine together with sugar and alcohol. Barolo Chinato is aged for at least one year in cask before being bottled and put on the market.

Garnet red in colour with orange hues, the nose mainly reveals scents of oriental spices. On the palate it is persistent, with a bitter finish that reveals the presence of gentian.

Ideal as a digestive, it goes well with chocolate desserts.
