Producer details
Il Borro is our flagship wine, the one that best embodies our values and our vision. After an accurate geological study Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah have been planted in the best-suited soils to express all their potential, giving birth to a velvety and opulent blend.

The 2020 vintage began with a dry and warm winter, with high temperatures that continued all over spring until May, when they were broken up by a series of heavy downpours that lasted until June and then gave way to a really hot summer. Some rainfall at the beginning of September brought to a rather early harvest, with excellent grape quality.
