Virna Borgogno
About
The Borgogno vineyards date from 1720. The estate as we know it today was founded in 1950 by Enrico Borgogno. Virna Borgogno joined her father Lodovico in managing the cellar. She is the first woman in Italy to complete a degree in oenology.
Virna helped by her sister Ivana is producing some of the best Barolos. In 2001, the estate was rebranded with the new “Virna” logo to celebrated the role of women in the business.
