Giacomo Borgogno & Figli is one of the great historic names of Barolo, with roots dating back to 1761 and a reputation built on unwavering adherence to traditional Piedmontese winemaking. The estate’s Riserva wines are produced from Nebbiolo grown on the calcareous marl soils surrounding the commune of Barolo, where elevated hillside vineyards and long growing seasons produce wines of formidable structure and longevity. Borgogno’s classical methods — extended macerations, aging in large neutral botti, and prolonged cellar maturation before release — allow the wine to develop the tar, rose petal, earthy spice, and savory complexity that define mature traditional Barolo.
