Lifted red cherry and raspberry tones glide through Elvio Cogno’s 2020 Barbaresco Bordini, layered with hints of blood orange, licorice and subtle spice. The palate is vibrant yet refined, with medium-bodied intensity, compact but polished tannins and a long, precise finish that promises greater savory and mineral depth with a few more years in bottle.

Elvio Cogno’s Barbaresco “Bordini” is a single‑vineyard expression of Nebbiolo (Lampia) from the Bordini site in Neive, made to emphasize finesse and floral-scented red-fruit clarity rather than heavy oak. Vinified in stainless steel with extended maceration and aged 12–14 months in large Slavonian botti, it shows violet and cherry aromas, gently spicy accents, fine tannins and a saline, persistent finish — a polished, terroir‑driven Barbaresco produced in relatively small quantities (around 10,000 bottles).
