Chionetti Barolo Roncaglie

Chionetti Barolo Roncaglie

Chionetti Barolo Roncaglie is an impressive wine from the prestigious winery Azienda Chionetti, located in the famous Barolo region of Piedmont, Italy. This wine, made from the Nebbiolo grape, embodies the finesse and complexity for which Barolo is known worldwide. Founded in 1912, Azienda Chionetti combines traditional winemaking methods with modern techniques, resulting in wines of exceptional quality and character.

The Roncaglie vineyard is located on the steep, sun-drenched hills of Barolo, where the soil is rich in clay and limestone. This unique terroir ensures that the Nebbiolo grapes ripen optimally and develop profound aromas and flavors. The grapes are harvested by hand, so only the best bunches are selected for vinification, which contributes to the excellent quality of the wine.

Chionetti Barolo Roncaglie has a beautiful deep garnet red color, which emphasizes the intensity of the wine. The aroma is complex and seductive, with prominent scents of rose petals, ripe cherries, raspberries and plums, complemented by subtle hints of tar, tobacco, spices and a delicate mineral touch. When tasting, the wine offers an excellent balance between the lively acidity and the powerful, yet refined tannins. The palate is rich and concentrated, with layers of red and dark fruits, spices and earthy nuances that unfold in a long, lingering finish.

Wine - Food pairing

This refined wine is an excellent accompaniment to various culinary delights. It pairs perfectly with traditional Piedmontese dishes such as brasato al Barolo (stewed beef in Barolo wine), tajarin with truffles and mature cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano and Pecorino. Grilled meat, game dishes and rich pasta dishes are also beautifully complemented by this wine. Chionetti Barolo Roncaglie also has excellent maturing potential, allowing it to gain even more complexity and refinement over the years.
