A blend of Nebbiolo, Dolcetto and Barbera under the Langhe Rosso DOC, carrying the name 'Enfant' in honor of a 1930 youth wine competition in Brussels where the Borgogno family's wine won three medals and a certificate. The wine has a deep ruby red color with garnet reflections that intensify with age, and a gentle, delicate bouquet recalling raspberry and violet that gains strength and refinement over time. On the palate it is dry, full-bodied and properly tannic when young, becoming velvety and harmonious with a little age — an approachable expression of the estate's three signature Piedmont varieties in a single bottle.
Enfant is Cavalier Bartolomeo at its most playful — three Piedmont grapes in one glass, built for the table rather than the cellar.
