Cocchi Barolo Chinato 0.5L
Born in Piedmont in the last century, it soon spread thanks to its taste, well balanced between bitter and sweet, and especially for the leading effect on the market of its name “Barolo”, that immediately positioned it among the noblest products compared to various other types of alcoholic drinks based on cinchona. Inventor of this original recipe, Giulio Cocchi was also the protagonist of the diffusion of Barolo Chinato. In Italy its consumption was encouraged by the fame it gained as therapeutic wine.

Colour

Garnet red that turns to mahogany.

Bouquet

Intense and charismatic Barolo Chinato with those candied citrusy hints of mint and cherry in alcohol. Continue with rhubarb, licorice, cinnamon, calissaja china and medicinal herbs. Closes with salty salts of great stature.

Flavour

Rich and powerful taste, justly sweet, distracted by lively freshness and citrus and spicy references that lengthen its persistence.

Pairing

The occasions to appreciate Cocchi Barolo Chinato are diverse, with a particular success in the good restoration when served at environment temperature or as elegant end of the meal or even steam heated with orange zest. Almost a surprise then the recent discovery of Barolo Chinato as an “ideal liquid” to support and complete the persistent taste of the mostly cocoa rich chocolates.
