Ludovico Borgogno - Barolo Classico 1988
Formerly known as Borgogno Lodovico Vigneti Borgognot. This product is available only for old vintages as it has been discontinued.
The 1988 vintage for Piedmont was largely very good. The growing season began with a moderate, dry winter which gave way to a mild spring but one that saw heavy rain at various points. However, conditions remained balmy enough to still see an early budburst. The summer eventually brought some heat which helped dry out the vines and by August the humidity was mostly gone although the weather remained variable. September brought cooler temperatures, particularly at night, while days remained warm and dry, ideal conditions for ripening Nebbiolo.
