Borgogno's Grappa di Barolo Cannubi is exclusively distilled from the grape pomace of Nebbiolo grapes from the renowned Barolo cru, Cannubi. This process begins immediately after the pomace arrives at the distillery to preserve the natural flavors and aromas. Distillation takes place discontinuously in small copper stills, followed by a period of aging in tonneaux after initial maturation in oak barrels. Grappa di Barolo Cannubi is distinguished by its light amber color, an intense bouquet with soft spicy tones, and a mature, deep, and smooth flavor that balances harmony and complexity with woody notes and a pleasant hint of honey, offering a balanced and harmonious tasting experience.

Borgogno is an institution in the wine world, with roots dating back to 1761 in the Langhe region of Piedmont. This historic winery has traversed centuries of Italian wine history, significantly contributing to the development of Barolo, known as the "King of Wines." Cesare Borgogno's innovative vision in the 1920s, which expanded production and began exporting wines abroad, positioned Borgogno as an international reference point in the wine industry. Today, Borgogno manages 39 hectares of land, 31 of which are vineyards, with cultivations ranging from indigenous varieties such as Nebbiolo, the protagonist of their renowned Barolo, to minor varieties such as Dolcetto, Barbera, Freisa, Riesling, and Timorasso, the latter being the focus of a revitalization project. Borgogno's philosophy, which combines respect for tradition with an eye for sustainability and innovation, is reflected in its wines, appreciated both for their traditional style and long-term aging potential, making them favorites among Italian wine enthusiasts and collectors.
