Subscribe NowAmaro (Italian for "bitter") is an Italian herbal liqueur that is commonly consumed as an after-dinner digestif. With ABVs anywhere from 16% to 40%, Amari can range from light styles perfect for making Negroni cocktails to a strong, fortifying end to the evening.
In Northern Italy’s Piedmont region the varietal, Nebbiolo is king. It is known for delicate floral and red fruit characteristics complimented by a punch of firm tannins on the palate. The Michele Chiarlo Il Principe Nebbiolo is more approachable than the long living wines made in the DOC regions of Barolo & Barbaresco.
There are aromas of rose, red cherry, leather and a touch of spice. The palate was dense and had darker fruit notes then I expected, the tannins were firm yet not overpowering. Normally I wouldn’t enjoy Nebbiolo without the right dish to combat the tannins but this wine is enjoyable on its own or when paired with the right dish.
