About the Borgogno Barolo Riserva 2010 1.5L Magnum
Borgogno Barolo Riserva 2010 is a benchmark expression of traditional Nebbiolo, sourced from historic cru vineyards across the Barolo zone and aged extensively in large Slavonian oak casks. It exhibits deep aromas of dried red cherry, wild berry, tobacco, eucalyptus, iron, and subtle tar. The palate reveals remarkable energy, fine-grained structure, integrated tannins, and a long, mineral-driven finish.
Food Pairing: Pairs superbly with slow-braised beef, truffle-infused pasta, osso buco, roasted venison, and aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or Castelmagno.
94 Points - James Suckling
I tasted the 2010 Barolo Riserva just a few weeks after the wine was bottled. Fruit is sourced from the three main vineyard sites farmed by Borgogno—Liste, Fossati and Cannubi—and assembled after vilification. The Liste cru is represented by the largest percentage in the blend. The wine is taut and aged with budding tertiary character. There are dried fruit aromas with smoke, cured tobacco leaf and tar. The mouthfeel shows smooth integration of both tannins and acidity, but the finish is very dry. This is a common characteristic I found across the three Barolo Riservas tasted here.
