Description

Cerequio is a vineyard located in the town of La Morra, protected from cold winds. The soils are composed of sand, silt, and clay that give tannic, robust, powerful wines. The rows of vines are located at above 320 metres above sea level and face east. The olfactory bouquet of this cru is rich and complex: cherry, violet, and balsamic notes with refined hints of vanilla and liquorice together with withered rose and goudron.

Damilano
From this winery
  • Start up year: 1890
Damilano is one of few traditional, ancient, ultra-centenary Barolo winemakers. In fact, the Damilano family has been active since 1890 when Giuseppe Borgogno, the great-grandfather of the current owners, started farming and making wine from the family-owned vineyard in Barolo (Cuneo), the town in the Langhe area that the homonymous wine was named after; a beautiful and generous land that has been the heart of the vocation to produce the “king of wines” for centuries.

It wasn’t until the following generation that Giacomo Damilano, the founder’s son-in-law, gave the current name to the winery. Giacomo Damilano gave the stimulus to preserve the vines and apply constant innovation in the quality of the winemaking process, making the winery become a “jewel” to proudly pass on to his nephews, who have managed the company since 1997. Guido, Mario, and Paolo Damilano have been capable of giving new lymph and push to the family company, particularly giving value to the prince grape of the Langhe, the Nebbiolo, and specific terroirs, the Cannubi above all.
