What makes this wine special?
A superb Nebbiolo that reveals the finest qualities of its personality with brio.
Más informaciónThe vines that grow in the legendary Barolo terroir are renowned for producing some of the world’s finest wines. Native to Piedmont, Nebbiolo produces great red wines with a garnet-red colour and subtle hints of orange. The grapes are harvested entirely by hand to preserve the fruit, and are picked at optimum ripeness at the end of October. In the winery, these grapes undergo natural fermentation with indigenous yeasts for around 12 days, at a controlled temperature of between 22 and 29 degrees. Lastly, the vintage is matured in oak barrels for around four years, before resting for a further six months in bottles before being released for sale.
The elegant ruby colour reveals a nose full of red fruit aromas such as cherry, with subtle hints of spice. The silky tannins blend perfectly with a lovely fullness leading to a lingering, fruity finish.
The Giacomo Borgogno winery is nestled in north-western Italy, in the heart of Piedmont. Established in 1761 by Bartolomeo Borgogno, the vineyard is renowned worldwide for cellaring its wines for over 10 years before releasing them onto the market, establishing the iconic signature of the domain. Work in the vineyards is carried out with great passion, showing the utmost respect for the soil and biodiversity. The domain cultivates its land in accordance with organic farming practices. The owner carries out vinification processes with little intervention, based on the conviction that the perfect balance between man and nature is essential for creating great wines. Yeasts naturally present in the grapes are used for fermentation, while only minimal amounts of sulphur are added to allow the fruit to fully express all its aromas naturally. It is in this peaceful environment that the Italian vineyard produces authentic, fragrant wines that perfectly reflect the terroir and grape varieties of the region.
