Barolo is life-changing wine. If Barolo were a scent, we would wear it. 

‘Tar & Roses’ is the classic description of any good Barolo, yet often there is so much more… leather, spice, blood, sour cherry, dried flowers, earthy complexity, the list goes on. 

Fragrance and tannins amplified, senses on overload… Barolo leaves us in a state of awe and gratitude. It is no wonder Borgogno states, ‘Every moment is right for drinking Barolo’. We feel the same way. 

Bartolomeo Borgogno established ‘Borgogno’ in 1761, making it one of the oldest wineries in the Barolo region. 

The wines had a fairly highbrow past –being served to Russian Tsars and the like before Cesare Borgogno took over management in 1920 and had the foresight to not only export the wines internationally but also to hold half of every vintage back, creating one of the most impressive wine libraries in the region. What a legend!
