SENSORY PROFILE

Serving temperature: 8-10 °C
Pairings: on the rocks with a single ice cube, no added citrus peel, as an aperitif or after a meal.
PRODUCTION METHOD
Fresh and dried botanicals are finely chopped. This is followed by cold extraction for three weeks, which helps to enhance the natural aromatic substances. Barolo wine that has been fully aged in wood is subsequently added to the extract, along with the part of white wine, as was traditionally the case in the 1800s. The process is then completed with the addition of alcohol and sugar.
