Giacomo Borgogno & Figli Barolo 2019

Giacomo Borgogno & Figli Barolo 2019

Since 1761, Giacomo Borgogno & Figli has been one of the most historical wineries in Barolo. The underground cellars continue to represent a rare historical memory of the Langa to this day, and the wines are made according to tradition: long spontaneous fermentations in concrete tanks without the use of selected yeasts, and long periods of ageing, strictly in large Slavonian oak barrels.

Giacomo Borgogno & Figli uses no chemical fertilisers and no herbicides, and practice only eco-friendly treatments. This will result in being certified as organic for the 2019 harvest. Today, Borgogno continues to be the expression of a territory and of tradition and history, always with a watchful eye on the future.

Critical Acclaim

93 James Suckling

Very primary with hibiscus, orange peel, and sliced strawberry aromas that follow through to a medium body, with fine tannins and a firm finish. A little in reserve now. From organically grown grapes.
