Borgogno Riesling "Era Ora" 2022 DOC 0.75l

Borgogno Riesling Era Ora 2022 DOC 0.75l is a white wine born from the union between a historic Piedmont winery and a varietal capable of expressing a distinct personality in a region traditionally suited to red wines, a context where tradition meets innovation to create a Riesling with controlled nuances. Borgogno, a company with centuries-old roots in Piedmont's Langhe region, has made the balance between heritage and modern practices its hallmark: Era Ora interprets this philosophy by offering a Riesling that emphasizes elegance and clean fruit, without ostentation. Selected plots and careful harvest management preserve the freshness and purity of the varietal character. The understated yet meticulous winemaking process focuses on controlled fermentation and maturation on neutral yeasts to highlight minerality and acidity rather than overly ripe notes. On the nose, notes of ripe citrus, lemon zest, grapefruit, and a hint of florality emerge, accompanied by a subtle minerality reminiscent of polished stone. On the palate, a light yet present structure is evident: a lively freshness, a thoughtful flavor, and a clean finish that lingers without being invasive. Era Ora stands out for its balance between the typical aromatics of Riesling and an elegant texture, a precision that distinguishes Borgogno from other producers; it is a contemporary interpretation of the varietal that remains faithful to the character of the terroir without sacrificing an international definition. Within the Borgogno range, Era Ora represents a benchmark white wine, capable of accompanying aperitifs, seafood or vegetable appetizers, light fish dishes, and fresh cheeses, while also offering a reflective pause for slow tasting. The 0.75-liter format makes it practical for everyday consumption and small tastings, with a production philosophy focused on respect for the terroir and a sensory enhancement that demonstrates the house's faith in its work. In closing, Era Ora is a consistent presence within the DOC denomination proposed by Borgogno, a choice designed for those seeking clean wines with a measured personality, capable of enriching the table without ostentation, in line with the STELT positioning.
