Borgogno is an Italian winery located in the Piedmont region, specifically in the town of Barolo. The winery was founded by Bartolomeo Borgogno in 1761, making it one of the oldest wineries in the region. Borgogno is known for its traditional Barolo wines, which are made from the Nebbiolo grape variety and aged for several years before release. The Cannubi vineyard is located in the heart of Barolo and is one of the most prestigious vineyards in the region.
The 2016 vintage was an outstanding year for Barolo, producing wines of great depth, complexity, and aging potential. Borgogno Cannubi Barolo 2016 is characterized by its deep ruby color, complex aromas of red fruit, violets, and spices, and its firm tannic structure.
Borgogno Cannubi Barolo 2016 pairs well with rich, full-flavored dishes like beef, lamb, or game, as well as dishes featuring truffles or mushrooms. It also pairs well with aged cheeses.
