Vajra G.D. Barolo Chinato
Barolo Chinato is an ancient Piedmontese digestive. The wine used as a production base is the Barolo Albe DOCG in the current vintage. It is sent to the "chinatura", that is, to the addition of infusions of about thirty herbs, peels and roots of plants, including the China (Cinchona Calisaya), hence the name.

Colour

Intense ruby red.

Bouquet

It is offered with the freshness typical of our Baroli, with a weave of roses and ripe cherries, on which there is a swing of mountain herbs and orange peel.

Flavour

Rightly bitter and persistent. Beautiful as a digestive or married to bitter chocolate.

History The practice of aromatizing wine was widespread in Egypt, Persia and also in in ancient Rome, the Vermut (born in Turin at the end of the 18th century) has certainly drawn the inspiration from here, and the Barolo Chinato from Vermut. The originality of Barolo Chinato (whose creators were Dr. Cappellano at Serralunga and Zabaldano at Monforte), was to combine a mix of spices to an extraordinary wine which is the Barolo.
