Wine Description

Damilano is one of the oldest wineries in Barolo. The family business dates back to 1890 when Giuseppe Borgogno started cultivating and producing wine from the grapes from his own vineyards. Giuseppe  improved the general quality of the vinification system and of the wines, turning the winery into a “jewel” of the Langhe area. In 1997 Giuseppe passed the winery on to his grandchildren Paolo, Mario and Guido. Together, they are working to keep and improve the level of the quality of the Damilano wines.

Acclaim
“The 2014 Barolo Cannubi holds its own; it's bold and intense, with good depth. The tannins are tight, silky and firm. It undergoes a classic aging phase with 24 months in botte grande. The finish is soft, silky and glossy.”
— Wine Advocate, Apr 2019
