Cordero began their journey into this aromatised wine style in 1992 over a few experimental demijohns, mainly for their own consumption and as gifts for their best customers. These experiments were so successful that Giovanni Cordero di Montezemolo eventually launched a limited production for sale. It continues to be a niche product with undeniable retro charm.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"577\" data-end=\"820\"\u003eA base of old Barolo (10 years or more) is sweetened and fortified with alcohol from distilled fruit and 18 botanicals including cinchona, rhubarb, gentian, coriander, liquorice and vanilla. There are less than 2000 bottles produced each year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"822\" data-end=\"1089\"\u003eBrick red in the glass, the nose is classic aged Barolo layered with hints of sarsaparilla and a mix of licorice, marjoram, rhubarb and coriander. You’ll also pick up layers of bitter orange peel, a touch of absinthe and baking spices, rounded out with savoury notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1091\" data-end=\"1476\"\u003eOn the palate it’s smooth, warm, and surprisingly powerful, finishing long with a gentle semi-sweet note. It makes an excellent digestif and can be enjoyed much like a top-tier vermouth. While it works in cocktails, its refined character really shines when served slightly chilled on its own—especially alongside traditional Piedmont hazelnut biscuits, pastries or even dark chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1478\" data-end=\"1657\"\u003eTo get the most out of your bottle, serve it at a cool room temperature (around 18–18°C \/ 60–64°F) in a long-stemmed or wide-bowled glass to appreciate its intense, spicy bouquet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1659\" data-end=\"1676\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1659\" data-end=\"1676\"\u003eFood Pairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1678\" data-end=\"1872\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1678\" data-end=\"1717\"\u003eDark Chocolate Pralines \u0026amp; Truffles:\u003c\/strong\u003e Look for chocolate with 70% cacao or higher.

Pairing Barolo Chinato with hazelnut pralines or gianduja capitalizes on a classic regional match—the nuttiness perfectly contrasts the sweet, herbal syrupy nature of the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2139\" data-end=\"2405\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2139\" data-end=\"2165\"\u003eAged, Pungent Cheeses:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair it with heavily aged Castelmagno (a local Piedmontese favorite), Gorgonzola Piccante, or extra-aged Pecorino.
