This unique digestive and dessert wine finds its roots in the heart of the Barolo region, in Piedmont, at the end of the 18th century. It follows a traditional family recipe – jealously guarded – and began to be produced as a remedy for many diseases. It was made at home by infusing aged Barolo with cinchona calisaya and many aromatic alpine herbs. A long maturation in oak barrels turns this aromatised wine into an elixir with little alcohol; the color is an amber red with faint ruby tinge. Pleasing and inviting, it surprises for its spicy, intense, and lingering fragrance. A unique product for real connoisseurs. Though there are many ways of serving it, we recommend it as an apéritif with soda water, bitter orange, and some ice.
