The passion for excellence in Barolo knows no bounds
The Brunella Tour presenting our new Barolo Brunella has brought us across the Atlantic on a coast-to-coast trip and has opened our eyes to the reactive American market which is open to high-quality, new wines.
Between November and December, at the splendid location of Locanda del Pilone, we have the great pleasure of organizing three exclusive evenings dedicated to grand French wines.
Thursday, November 23 we will be hosting Thomas Duroux, CEO of Château Palmer for a tasteful dinner by one Michelin starred chef Federico Gallo paired with prestigious wines such as the 1975, 1988, 1998 and 2005 vintages of Château Palmer and Vin Blanc de Palmer alter ego 2009 from the Historical XIX Century 2006 editions.
On Thursday 21 September, Palazzo della Permanente art museum in Milan hosted the latest amfAR Gala Milano, the annual dinner promoted by the international non-profit organization American Foundation for AIDS Research, dedicated to the fight against AIDS since1993.
Thursday, 14 September at the elegant Mandarin Bistrot in Milan we presented the latest newcomer to the Boroli family: Barolo Brunella 2013.
Incorporating this newcomer in a horizontal tasting that also included Barolo 2013, Barolo Cerequio 2013 and Barolo Villero 2013, we wanted to share the results of a great project with the tasters and journalists present, and at the same time, show how it is a perfect celebration of the “Boroli Taste”.
Music, literature, cinema, tastings, events and lively discussions about wine: all of this and much more took place at Collisioni 2017, the Agrirock festival that has been held in Barolo for the past nine years and sees hundreds of thousands of enthusiasts come to discover the charm and taste of the Langhe.
Situated at the western end of the Villero ridge in Castiglione Falletto in the Langhe hills, Cascina Brunella is one of the most recognisable places in the area.
Classified as a “first-class cru” by Renato Ratti in his “Mappa del Barolo” (1965), and defined as a “choice zone” by the scrupulous agronomist Lorenzo Fantini in the first monograph on winegrowing in the Cuneo area, Cerequio is without doubt one of the most prestigious Barolo vineyards.
The Blonde Salad is not only Chiara Ferragni’s successful blog, but a veritable brand known worldwide that can count on the professionalism and enthusiasm of 12 strictly under thirties.
NEW YORK IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA. AT LEAST THAT’S HOW THE SAYING GOES. On our last business trip, accompanied by our importer Wine Berry, we sampled the best of New York’s Italian cuisine, and with our Barolo we made stops at some of the most renowned restaurants - Eataly New York Flatiron, Del Posto, Babbo, and Lupa. Our adventure in the Big Apple continued on 28 April at BurdiGala, one of New York’s most prestigious Burgundy tastings More than twenty French chateaux presented their finest labels in Manhattan’s most iconic venue, the Rockefeller Centre. Among those present were some of the world’s most renowned names - Château Palmer, Château Figeac and Château d’Yquem. Tastings were presented by a team of noted sommeliers, including Cedric Nicaise, Andrea Morris and Morgan Harris – a wine experience we won’t easily forget, and where we discovered the wine and gourmet side of the Big Apple....
