Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

Damilano Barolo Lecinquevigne offers a captivating experience for those who appreciate a structured, elegant red wine perfect for special dinners or quiet evenings. With an ABV of 14.5%, this Italian classic is crafted from 100% Nebbiolo grapes grown in select vineyards across the Barolo region, reflecting both tradition and meticulous production methods that highlight its Piedmontese heritage.

On the palate, this Barolo reveals layers of ripe cherry, dried rose petals, and subtle hints of licorice and tobacco. Its firm tannins and vibrant acidity make it an excellent match for rich dishes like lamb or truffle risotto, where the wine’s earthy undertones and lingering finish beautifully complement savory flavors and creamy textures.

Producer Information: Damilano

Damilano is a historic wine producer based in the heart of Barolo, within Italy’s Piedmont region. The estate traces its origins to 1890, when Giuseppe Borgogno began cultivating vineyards that would later be inherited and expanded by his descendants. Today, Damilano remains family-owned and is recognized for its meticulous vineyard management and traditional winemaking techniques that emphasize terroir expression. The winery focuses on low yields, careful grape selection, and extended aging to produce wines that reflect the unique characteristics of their prestigious Barolo appellation.

Beyond their flagship Barolo wines made from Nebbiolo grapes, Damilano offers a diverse portfolio featuring other classic Piedmont varietals such as Barbera d’Asti and Dolcetto d’Alba. They also craft white wines like Langhe Arneis and Moscato d’Asti, showcasing the aromatic potential of local grapes. In addition to still wines, Damilano produces grappa distilled from their own pomace, further highlighting their commitment to regional authenticity. Their range appeals to collectors and enthusiasts seeking both red and white expressions rooted in Piedmontese tradition.
