Borgogno Barolo Reserva 1982

Borgogno is the most historic winery in Barolo and the wines are produced according to tradition: long spontaneous fermentations without the use of selected yeasts in cement tanks, and long refinements strictly in large Slavonian oak barrels. They cultivate the vineyards in Barolo, Madonna di Como and on the hills of Tortona. They do not use chemical fertilizers or herbicides, they only practice sustainable treatments and with the 2019 vintage they became certified organic. Borgogno's RESERVA 1982 Barolos come from the three most important Crus: Cannubi, Liste and Fossati. Spontaneous fermentation in cement tanks at relatively low temperatures followed by submerged maceration that, in some cases, can even last 50 days. Ageing in cement tanks for one year and then in large Slavonian oak barrels for five years, followed by 12 months of bottle ageing before being released on the market.
