About Domaine
The memory of Serio & Battista Borgogno continues to live in their vineyards and in the passion they managed to transmit to their family.
The winery is now run by daughters Anna and Paola Borgogno, Federica Boffa and Emanuela Bolla, the fifth generation of the family, and Marco Bolla.
Marco and Emanuela Bolla personaly take care of the vineyards and cellar, leading every step from pruning to harvest, from pressing to bottling.
Wineyards
In addition to owning 3 hectares on the top of Cannubi, Borgogno Family passionately grows its own as well as some other rented vineyards for a total amount of about 7 hectares mainly located in the counties of Barolo, Novello and Diano d’Alba. The whole job, from the pruning to the thinning stage and to the selection of the grapes before the harvest, are personally run by the Family, in order to obtain healthy and genuine grapes, and to produce a wine that authentically reflects the land from which it comes.
Cannubi
Cannubi is probably one of the most complex and fascinating area cru Barolo. With its strategic location, this hill gathers in harmony deep and compact soils of the Elveziano side of the Barolo area (Sandstone of Diano D’Alba and clay with lime content) represented by the municipalities of Monforte d’Alba, Castiglione Falletto, Serralunga d’Alba and the most delicate and soft elements of the Tortoniano component (Marl of Sant’Agata Fossil) found in the village of La Morra and Verduno.
The uniqueness of this vineyard is gathered in the unique union of the two main sides of the area of Barolo (Elveziano and Tortoniano) principally made of thin sand and limestone which combined with the microclimatic conditions and the exposure lend the wine fullness, elegance, delicacy and longevity.
THE TRUFFLE HUNTERS CONSERVATION PROJECT
It is not just a movie,
it is a magnificent picture of authentic, everyday life.
A glimpse of the real life of the Trifolaos and their community of Cisterna d’Asti and San Damiano d’Asti, where the documentary film was shot.
An exciting vision that does not limit itself to celebrating the famous White Truffle but to describe the lives of these wise men in their surprising everyday life. Unique and genuine people capable of transmitting important values such as respect and gratitude towards nature and the forest, as well as for their trusted and beloved dogs.
The protagonists of the film are not actors, they are ordinary and unique people, whom we should all be able to meet on our way.
THE TRUFFLE HUNTERS – THE MOVIE
We made a film called The Truffle Hunters. It’s a documentary about a group of wise old men and their dogs who travel Piedmont’s forests searching for the rare white truffle. We partnered with the prestigious Barolo estate S&B Borgogno to produce this limited edition label.
A portion of the proceeds will go to protect the fragile truffle forests where we filmed.
Please enjoy!

THE TRUFFLE HUNTERS – CONSERVATION PROJECT
From this wonderful documentary film an equally ambitious project was born.
A project for the conservation and safeguarding of wooded areas. In collaboration with our American importer Skurnik Wines and film directors Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw the Limited Edition labels have been created.
It is a great honor for us to be able to contribute to this project with our wines:
Barolo Cannubi 2018
Nebbiolo D’Alba 2019
TERRE DI TARTUFI
it is made up of a group of friends (trifolao, naturalists, farmers, doctors, engineers, freelancers, photographers, journalists), who have identified a common passion, that of love for their land and they decided to channel it into a concrete project of witness and involvement.
Thanks to the donations received, including those from the film’s investors today the association owns more than 30 hectares of woods.

It is a great honor to be part of this ambitious one and far-sighted project, with a special selection of our wines. Our territory has always offered us unique products such as wine and truffles.
