An infusion of chinchona (China Calissaja and Succirubra barks) is macerated for 21 days in a small amount of Pio Cesare's classic Barolo. They then add a mixture of aromatic herbs, such as gentian roots, rhubarb, cardamom seeds, sweet and bitter orange, cinnamon and others, which all together compose this family recipe. Then, after a few weeks ageing, they add the proper amount of their classic Barolo. After a light fining, the infusion is aged for 4 months in oak barrels, bottled, and after an additional ageing of at least 2 months, it finally becomes their Pio Cesare Barolo Chinato.

Alexander ★★★★★

The gentian root gives this Barolo an interesting herbal bitter edge that lingers nicely. It’s complex without being heavy, perfect for sipping slowly after dinner.

Sophia O. ★★★★★

The gentian root gives this a wonderfully bitter, herbal edge that cuts through the wine’s rich fruit. I’ve been sipping it slowly as an after-dinner digestif, and the warmth really lingers. It’s my new favorite way to end a meal.

Owen ★★★★☆

I wasn't sure about the chinchona bark infusion, but it actually adds a pleasant bitter edge that balances the wine nicely. The 21-day maceration really comes through in the complexity. A solid choice for something different.
