Production Details Current NV release: an infusion of China Calissaja and Succirubra chinchona barks is macerated for 21 days in a small quantity of Pio Cesare’s classic Barolo. Gentian root, rhubarb, cardamom seed, sweet and bitter orange, cinnamon and other herbs are added according to the family recipe. Following several weeks of aging, the remaining Barolo is added; the infusion is lightly fined, matured for four months in oak barrels, bottled and aged for at least another two months. The producer additionally identifies Barolo “Pio” as the wine base and states that sugar and alcohol are added.
Tasting Notes Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, June 2021, NV release: dark amber with chestnut highlights; balsamic and medicinal-herb aromas with mint, cola, candied orange peel, spice and toasted cedar; balanced sweetness.
Food Pairing Serve after a long meal; pair with desserts, especially dark chocolate.
