Note di degustazione
Drawing fruit from La Morra, the Borgogno 2015 Barolo Fossati is another wine that boasts amazing DNA and then falls short of expectations. What's missing here is varietal purity and definition on the bouquet. The aromas feel muddled and confused. To be honest, the Fossati is one of the better wines in the bunch, but by this point in my tasting, disappointment is setting in.

Borgogno's 2015 Barolo Fossati offers good brightness and energy to match its mid-weight frame. Iron, sweet red fruit, wild flowers and mint give the 2015 an attractive upper register. Most importantly, the 2015 is impeccably balanced, with just enough fruit to stand up to the edgy Fossati tannins. This is very nicely done.
Informazioni sul produttore
One of Piedmont’s oldest estates, Giacomo Borgogno & Figli, often known as just “Borgogno”, is archly traditional. Favouring long macerations and extended ageing in Slavonian cask, it is best known for its impressive Barolos, especially the prized late releases from its extensive library stock.
