The Borgogno name is synonymous with Barolo and is intimately connected to many important historical and cultural events of the region. In 1920, Cesare Borgogno took over management of the winery and began successfully exporting the wines abroad and cellaring wines to create a wine library of reserve wines for later release. As of 2013 Borgogno went back to using concrete cement as the exclusive material for fermentation tanks and began their conversion to organic viticultural practices in 2016. The wines will be certified organic as of the 2019 vintage.
