Virna Borgogno Langhe nebbiolo 'Il' 2023

In the heart of Barolo, one of the most iconic villages of Piedmont, you will find the Virna Borgogno estate. As the first female oenologist in Italy, Virna, together with her sister Ivana, leads the family business with a clear vision: to make wines that combine tradition and elegance.

This Langhe Nebbiolo is a refined expression of the region's famous grape, originating from younger vineyards and with a shorter maturation than a classic Barolo. This results in an accessible yet characterful wine with aromas of raspberry, violets and a subtle spiciness. In the mouth it is supple, beautifully balanced and surprisingly long in the aftertaste.

An ideal wine for those who want to taste the finesse of Nebbiolo in a slightly lighter, accessible style.
