Descrizione

Chinato Borgogno is born in the historic winery of the same name, located in the heart of the Langhe, a region renowned for the deep winemaking tradition of Piedmont. This chinato stands out for the harmonious fusion of Barolo, the noble Nebbiolo grape, with a skillful infusion of aromatic herbs and spices that give it a unique and enveloping character.

The aging process in oak barrels enhances its complex notes of quinine, candied orange, vanilla, and a delicate hint of medicinal herbs, creating a refined balance between sweetness and bitterness. On the palate, it presents itself as structured yet elegant, with a long and persistent finish that invites slow sipping.

Perfect as a meditation wine or accompaniment to dark chocolate desserts, aged cheeses, or as an original proposal for a sophisticated aperitif, Chinato Borgogno gracefully expresses the richness and identity of its territory of origin.

Winery history

Founded in 1761 by Bartolomeo Borgogno, the estate has passed through several generations while maintaining a traditional style. During the twentieth century it expanded its exports and amassed a collection of historic bottles; in 1967 it took the name Giacomo Borgogno & Figli. In 2008 ownership passed to the Farinetti family, who invested in restoring the historic buildings and the cellar without altering its classic character. In the 2010s the estate returned to the exclusive use of concrete for fermentations and began converting to organic production. In recent years Borgogno has also developed projects focused on the traditional Barolo crus and on expanding into areas such as Madonna di Como and the Colli Tortonesi.

Production philosophy

Practising the traditions of the Langhe with an emphasis on slowness and respect for the land: spontaneous fermentations in concrete, long aging in large Slavonian oak casks, and attention to agronomic sustainability with practices that avoid chemical fertilizers and herbicides. The estate states a conservative approach to winemaking, combined with investments in restorations and sustainability.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are concentrated in the commune of Barolo, with estates also in Madonna di Como and in the Colli Tortonesi for Timorasso. The soils are predominantly calcareous-clay marls typical of the best exposures in the Langhe.

Awards and recognitions

Conversion to organic farming and organic-certified production; Equalitas certification obtained in 2024; the estate has long been recognized and noted for its collections of historic vintages.
