Made from Rhine Riesling grapes, it reveals bright straw-yellow hues in the glass. On the nose, it expresses a \u003cstrong\u003esemi-aromatic profile\u003c\/strong\u003e rich in scents of yellow fruits and flowers, enhanced by a \u003cstrong\u003edistinctive mineral note\u003c\/strong\u003e in constant evolution. On the palate, it is vertical and balanced, supported by a \u003cstrong\u003ecrisp freshness\u003c\/strong\u003e that leads the sip towards a clear, dry and savoury finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere does it come from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes grow in Madonna di Como, near Alba, in the heart of the Langhe in Piedmont. At an altitude of five hundred metres, the vineyards benefit from an ideal subcontinental climate. The \u003cstrong\u003emarine sedimentary soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, composed of clay-limestone mixtures and \u003cstrong\u003emarl rich in limestone\u003c\/strong\u003e, give structure to the wine. The east and south exposure enhances the pronounced \u003cstrong\u003emineral character\u003c\/strong\u003e that distinguishes this renowned area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is it produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter manual harvesting, the bunches undergo a \u003cstrong\u003ecold maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e on the skins to encourage the extraction of primary aromas. The \u003cstrong\u003espontaneous fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e, triggered exclusively by indigenous yeasts, takes place in steel tanks. The subsequent six-month rest on fine lees enriches the organoleptic profile, giving depth and complexity. Thanks to further maturation in steel, Borgogno shapes a vibrant and structured white, characterised by excellent \u003cstrong\u003eageing potential\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe name “Era Ora” literally means that the time had come for the winery to produce its first white wine, after a long history dedicated to red wines.
