Barolo Chinato Tipo Esportazione 130 years

To celebrate the milestone of its 130th anniversary, Giulio Cocchi, founded in Asti in 1891, presented a limited edition of a special “Barolo Chinato tipo Esportazione”.
Barolo Chinato, produced continuously since the company’s early years, has accompanied the history and evolution of Giulio Cocchi.

Barolo Chinato Cocchi has embodied characteristics of elegance and taste that have allowed him to never go out of fashion: the labels of Barolo Chinato Cocchi, that have followed one another over the years, have held firm all the elements that characterized them from the beginning, from the prominence given to the “Massime Onorificenze” obtained from the wine to the accent on China (Cinchona), the protagonist among the spices of the aromatization, marking a very distinctive recognizability of this wine.

CHARACTERISTICS

The nose opens with rich and woody notes of cinchona bark, dry tobacco leaves and spices, followed by dry roses from the Barolo wine and cocoa beans. On the palate a delicate sweetness leaves space for the deep complexity of the Barolo DOCG single cru at its hearth. Dark berries, violets and velvety tannins can be found together with cardamon, liquorice and bitter orange peels. Charred wood, cloves and eucalyptus are detected at the end, leaving a long aftertaste of dry botanicals and dark chocolate.

 

HOW TO DRINK IT

Served at room temperature as an elegant end to a meal or slightly chilled.
Perfect paired with dark chocolate.
