Description
The vineyard is located in the locality of the same name on a west-facing slope, with
partly north-south and partly east-west orientation.
The blend is 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and the remaining Sangiovese and Ciliegiolo.
The planting layout, 3x1 m, allows for optimal vegetative development of the vines,
canceling the shading on the rows.
The Borgonovo is pruned with spurred cordon and in the summer they are made
manual defoliation to improve the composition of the grapes.
The Borgonovo vineyard, like the others, is totally grassed and managed organically.
After harvesting, the grapes undergo fermentation: the skins macerate in the must
until this uses up all the sugars, after which the Borgonovo wine rests for two
years in large wooden barrels and another year aged in the bottle
