Product information "Langhe "Le sorelle" DOC"

Intense ruby red in colour, the nose has notes of juicy berries and sweet cherries. In the mouth it is full and solid but pleasant with a long finish of ripe berries on a vanilla background. It is recommended to serve at a temperature of 17-18°C.

The vinification takes place by soft pressing of the grapes, followed by fermentation and maceration on the skins for 6-7 days at a temperature of 29-31 ° C.
The wine continues to mature for 6 months when - after clarification - it is bottled. The bottles are then stored in the cellar for a few months before release.

Virna Borgogno

The village of Barolo is located in the heart of the Langhe, the most prestigious wine-making area in Italy’s Piedmont region.
The Borgogno family lives and works right here in Barolo, managing their own “Virna” state.

VIRNA BORGOGNO
First woman in Italy whit a degree in enology.

A descendant of one of the most famous Langhe families, Virna Borgogno is the first woman in Italy to complete a degree in oenology and oenological techniques. In 1988, she joined her father Lodovico in managing the cellar.
The Borgogno vineyards date from 1720, while the modern estate was founded in 1950 by Enrico Borgogno. Nowadays, Virna and her sister Ivana have taken the reins of the estate wholly in hand, with Ivana looking after the administrative and marketing side of the business. In 2001, the estate was rebranded with the new “Virna” logo to reflect the major role played by women in the business.
