Boroli's entry-point Barolo DOCG is a traditional blend drawn from the estate's plots around Castiglione Falletto, showing the classic character of the appellation ahead of the single-vineyard crus. Fermented in stainless steel with extended cap maceration and aged in large Slavonian oak casks, it opens with wild strawberry, rose petal, cinnamon and cedar, leading to smooth, silky tannins and bright red fruit. As required for Barolo DOCG, it is aged a minimum of 38 months, including at least 18 months in oak, before release.
Boroli's base Barolo proves 'entry-level' doesn't mean simple — a serious, food-ready Nebbiolo built for the table, not just the cellar.
