Characteristics of the Langhe Nebbiolo from the Borgogno winery
In appearance, which is highlighted by the organoleptic examination, it has a clear ruby red colour and is bright to the eye. The perfume is characterized by a refined bouquet, it is not one of the common ones, but lets perceive rich nuances that refer first to cherries, strawberries and ripe red fruit in general, and then recall the tertiaries of cinchona and undergrowth. The taste is fresh and balanced, with tannins well present but still perfectly integrated into the texture. The finish is persistent and slightly mineral.
