Tasting notes

The tasting experience of Marolo Chinato is marked by its intricate blend of flavors, starting with a rich bouquet of dark berries, followed by a palate that intertwines the bitterness of Cinchona bark with the sweetness of the wine and spices like clove and cinnamon. This creates a harmonious and warming finish, with lingering notes of herbal complexity and a touch of bitterness that is both invigorating and sophisticated.

Pairing

Marolo Chinato pairs exceptionally well with chocolate-based desserts, as its herbal bitterness and sweet wine base enhance the depth of cocoa flavors, creating a sublime tasting experience. It also serves as an elegant complement to blue cheeses, where its complexity and sweetness can balance the sharpness of the cheese, making for an indulgent and refined pairing.
