Giacomo Borgogno Riesling Era Ora 2024

Giacomo Borgogno Riesling Era Ora 2024 is a bright, characterful white wine from one of Piedmont’s most historic producers, showing a fresh and precise expression of Riesling with unmistakable Italian personality. Crafted by Giacomo Borgogno e Figli, a name synonymous with tradition in Barolo, this wine combines Alpine-influenced elegance with the grape’s naturally vibrant acidity and aromatic lift.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a pale straw color with shimmering green reflections, hinting at its youth and freshness. The nose is expressive and refined, with notes of white flowers, citrus peel, green apple, and subtle stone fruit, often underscored by a delicate mineral edge. On the palate, the wine is lively and focused, offering crisp acidity, clean citrus flavors, and a precise, saline finish that keeps the wine refreshing and food-friendly. Riesling’s naturally structured profile gives it good development potential, so while this vintage is delicious in its youth, it can also evolve gracefully over the next few years, gaining complexity and depth.

Production
Produced in Piedmont, the wine benefits from a climate that can provide cool nights and excellent aromatic definition, helping Riesling retain freshness and tension. The grapes are harvested with care at optimal ripeness, and vinification is typically aimed at preserving purity of fruit and the variety’s expressive aromatic profile, with a clean, restrained approach in the cellar.

Food & Serving
This wine is a versatile partner at the table, working especially well with seafood, shellfish, sushi, fresh goat cheese, risotto, and lightly spiced Asian dishes. Serve chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, and decanting is generally not necessary unless you want to open up the wine after a few years of bottle age.
