Cocchi Barolo Chinato Tipo Esportazione 135 Years

Limited edition for Cocchi's 135th anniversary, 1,891 numbered bottles of single-vineyard, single-cask Barolo Chinato in the export style.

Tasting notes

Rich, woody notes of cinchona, dried tobacco leaves and spices, then dried Barolo rose and cocoa beans. Delicate sweetness gives way to the complexity of single-cru Barolo: dark berries, violets, velvety tannins, cardamom, licorice and bitter orange peel. Finish of toasted wood, cloves and eucalyptus with a long aftertaste of dried botanicals and dark chocolate.
