DESCRIPTION:
The origins of the Damilano winery date back to over a century ago, when Giuseppe Borgogno, the great grandfather of the current owners, started to grow and make wine from his own grapes. This tradition was maintained by Giacomo Damilano, the founder’s son-in-law, together with his children until it passed to his four grandchildren: Guido, Margherita, Paolo and Mario, who very attentively manage their upright style. The estate is widely appreciated thanks to the strictness and
passion that accompany all of the winery’s activities.
TASTING NOTES:
“Showing good intensity and big aromatics, the 2013 Barbera d’Alba Lablù is a no-fuss wine that would pair with easy pasta and lasagna recipes. It ages in wood for 12 months (in both botte grade and tonneaux). That aging time has served to tame the naturally high acidity of this native Italian grape. You still get the freshness, but it is well contained.
