Giacomo Borgogno & Figli Dolcetto d’Alba 2021
This is a gorgeous and bright wine from Giacomo Borgogno, one of the oldest, most-respected wineries in all of Italy. This is a delicious Piedmontese red wine with a fresh and lively mouth that’s full of juicy red berries, floral notes, and even a subtle earthiness. Dolcetto is a treasured grape that is largely overlooked by Nebbiolo in Piedmont because it makes more money. But the reality is this is the perfect introduction for anyone looking at trying a wine from this region.

Giacomo Borgogno & Figli is truly one of the most historic and revered names in the world of Barolo and Piedmontese wine. Founded by Bartolomeo Borgogno in 1761, it is arguably the oldest winery in Barolo, with a legacy that spans over 250 years.
This estate’s history is deeply intertwined with Italy’s own, with Borgogno wines famously served at the banquet celebrating the unification of Italy in 1861, and even for Tsar Nicholas II during his visit in 1866.
What sets Borgogno apart is its unwavering commitment to traditional winemaking. Even after being sold to the Farinetti family (owners of Eataly) in 2008, the philosophy has been to “not change anything,” meticulously adhering to time-honored methods.
