Wine Description:
Borgogno Barolo is a premium red wine produced by the historic Borgogno winery in the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, Italy. The wine is made from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the region's renowned vineyards, which are characterized by their steep slopes and mineral-rich soils. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including long maceration and aging in large oak barrels, resulting in a wine with complex aromas of red fruit, spices, and earthy notes. Borgogno Barolo is known for its full-bodied and structured style, with firm tannins and a long finish, making it a perfect pairing for hearty meat dishes and aged cheeses. Pros:
- Complex flavor profile
Cons:
- High in tannins and can be overwhelming for some palates
Wine Expert Note:
This Borgogno Barolo offers a captivating nose of dried herbs, wet earth, and sweet cherries. On the palate, this wine has a robust body and firm tannic structure that carries through to a long, savory finish. On the nose, notes of crushed black raspberries, dried tobacco leaf, and rose petals are present. On the palate, a core of sweet red fruit and dried herbs is surrounded by hints of leather and peppercorn. The finish is lingering and well-balanced, with a nice warmth that lingers on the tongue. This Barolo is an excellent example of what this region has to offer.Taste Flavor
