Borgogno Barolo Riserva 2016 is a landmark expression from a stellar vintage in Piedmont, crafted by one of the region's most revered historic producers. Sourced from choice estate parcels across the Barolo commune—including historic crus like Cannubi, Liste, and Fossati—this long-aged red opens with intricate aromas of dried cherry, dried rose petals, underbrush, leather, allspice, and subtle tar. On the palate, it exhibits a full-bodied, structured profile supported by vibrant natural acidity, superfine tannins, and a long, savory finish with notes of dark earth and game.
Food Pairing: Pairs superbly with slow-braised beef short ribs, truffle-infused tagliatelle, osso buco, roasted wild game, or aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano and Castelmagno.
97 Points - James Suckling
Complex aromas of plums, dried strawberries, white truffle, and bark. It’s full-bodied and chewy with plenty of dried fruits and spices. Some dark mushrooms to the fruit at the end. Structured and poised. Drinkable but even better in three to six years.
93 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Aromas of dried cherry, dried rose and underbrush drive the nose on this classic Barolo. As the wine develops in the glass, savory spices and medicinal herb aromas waft out. The palate is lifted with cranberry notes giving way to allspice, leather and a gamy note. Dried earth notes and superfine tannins are on the finish.
93 Points - Wine Spectator
Aromas of hay and autumn meadow segue to cherry, mint, iron and tobacco flavors in this muscular red. Fluid and balanced, with dense yet civilized tannins providing the support. Excellent length. Best from 2027 through 2045.
