Barbera

Silvia Borgogno represents a new generation of winemakers in Barolo, bringing energy and clarity to Piedmont’s winemaking traditions. Her Barbera d'Alba 2022 is grown in calcareous clay soils typical of the Langhe, which give the wine both freshness and structure. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel to preserve the bright fruit character of the grape, followed by a period of aging in large oak casks. This Barbera shows aromas of ripe cherry, plum, and a hint of vanilla, with a well-balanced acidity and smooth tannins. The result is a wine that is lively and approachable, yet structured enough to pair with richer cuisine. Silvia’s hands-on approach and commitment to sustainable vineyard practices make this a sincere and modern expression of Barbera from Barolo.

Borgogno Francesco

Rooted at the meeting point of Cannubi and Brunate hills in Barolo, this family estate was born in the 1930s and traces its soul even further back to Bartolomeo Borgogno in the 18th century. Today, guided by Francesco's sons and granddaughter—Giancarlo, Claudio, and Silvia—the vineyards still yield Nebbiolo from the calcareous-marl of Brunate, hand-tended at 350 m above sea level. In the cellar, tradition reigns: long macerations, and patient ageing in enormous oak casks. The result is a Barolo that is timeless, elegant, and resolute.
