Description
Cocchi Barolo Chinato 500ml
TASTING NOTES
- NOSE
Heavy, rich and thick with both sweetness and bitterness. Stewed raisins, dark spiced fruit cake and rich, buttery almond notes dominate, with cherry, menthol touches and gentle ground mixed spice as a background. It’s almost like mulled wine, but with more richness and a definite sweet/sour acidity.
- PALATE
A blend of fruit, spice and chocolate, with tart berry and cherry notes balanced by woody sweetness, herbal bitterness and a background of spicy and fruity dark chocolate.
- FINISH
Heavy and rich, with red wine tannins mingled with cherry sweetness and gentle leafy bitterness.
COMMENT
A perfect after dinner drink on its own – it makes a great alternative to a vintage port – or as a pairing for food: chocolate, cheese, rich charcuterie or dark fruit cake are all excellent matches.
