Borgogno, Antichi Vigneti Propri, Barolo, Riserva 1958
4.0-4.5cm, lightly scuffed, bin soiled, nicked and torn labels
From the personally owned, old-vine holdings of one of the oldest winemaking houses in Piedmont. In fact, the Barolo of Borgogno was the wine chosen for the official celebration lunch of Italy's unity in 1861. Nebbiolo is the "king of wines" for a reason — it can age with the best grapes, especially in great vintages like 1964. Dating from 1761 Borgogno is one of the most historical wineries in Barolo. The underground cellars continue to represent a rare historical memory of the Langa to this day, and the wines are made according to tradition: long spontaneous fermentations in concrete tanks without the use of selected yeasts, and long periods of ageing, strictly in large Slavonian oak barrels. Vineyards are culitvatead in Barolo, Madonna di Como and in the Colli Tortonesi.

Very light color in the glass, but the wine got better and better with air. Overall it was consistent with my previous experience. Complex nose of dried flowers, caramel, quite a bit of red fruit, tar, and cherries. Good structure with present tannins and fruit notes that picked up weight with air. Long finish. Amazing experience. 9/29/2022

Wines with 25+ Years Non-Blind (Bin 75 Alpharetta, GA): Sweet tea copper, fully resolved color; incense, dried roses, maduro cigar, dried fruit, leather; balsamic on the palate, still very alive, very interesting, I wanted to smell this all day but I feel the palate was a little bit better which is something you rarely say, incredible amount of umami that keeps building; very good and surprisingly delicious; finally a Borgogno that exceeds expectation. 10/14/2022
