Boroli - Piemonte

The Borolis are a piedmontese family who have been in business in the region – first in textiles, then editorial, and now in winegrowing – since 1831.
In the 1990’s, Silavano ed Elena Boroli felt the need to extend their interest and endeavours.
They wanted something that would bring them closer to nature and away from the demands of the contemporary business world.
As Piedmontese, the choice was almost an obligation: making wine in Langa. A passion transformed into work. What could be better?
Wine production isn’t the easiest work it’s consuming, subject to nature, and success can’t always be predicted. But it’s exactly for these reasons that success in this area can give great satisfaction.
In 2000 Achille, the third of the four Boroli sons entered the family wine business.

The culture of wine, includes many things besides the wine itself. In the Boroli’s case, quality is always the common denominator, in their role as wine producers as well as the product itself.

The farm director is the oenologist Enzo Alluvione, assisted by his son Daniele for the vineyards and by Achille Boroli for the marketing and selling. The farm consultant is the oenologist Beppe Caviola. The vines grown are nebbiolo, barbera, merlot, cabernet, sauvignon, dolcetto, white moscato and chardonnay, following the guiot standard of vine raising.
5,000-7,000 kilograms of grapes are produced per hectare, with an average of 1,5 kilos per vinestock and a density of around 4,000 vinestocks per hectare.
