Borgogno Description
After the manual harvest in our five historic vineyards in the municipality of Barolo, the grapes are de-stemmed and crushed in the cellar. Spontaneous fermentation follows in large concrete tanks, at a temperature between 22 ° and 28 ° for about 15 days. Subsequently, submerged cap maceration in concrete for 20 days, at which time the malolactic fermentation also takes place. The wine is racked into large Slavonian oak barrels where it will age for more than 24 months. This is followed by a passage in concrete tanks before being bottled.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Bright and fresh with sliced berries, peaches and citrus. Cranberries, too. Roses. Medium body. Firm and silky tannins and a bright and vivid finish.
Wine Enthusiast: 91 Points
The wine captivates, with dark roasted cherries and incense, carrying a mélange of spices seemingly suspended in the glass. A hint of forest floor and dried leaves adds depth to the bouquet. A concentrated palate where the flavors of black cherries macerated in spirits dominate, accented by nuances of worn leather, tea leaves, and dried herbs. Fine tannins provide a structured finish to this complex ensemble.
