The typos are coming more frequently these days
probably my all time favorite Barolo. And even more important, the wife absolutely adores it. i will be sorry when it is gone 
Quite eerily today I just received a gift and when I opened it it was a bottle of Borgogno No Name - no information shown on that label - reinforces that Italian take on rules. Yes the back label did have the required information in small print.
I don’t know much of the details of this (I have some 2010), but it is Borgogno’s rebellion over the bureaucratic DOCG labeling rules. As I recall, the wine itself is actually a blend from some of their best vineyards.
I believe it stems from when Farinetti bought Borgogno his Barolo was not approved by the DOCG the following year. This wine was his reaction to that
I never remember - which top normally signifies one late released ‘reconditioned’ and topped up at the winery?
red foil top: original release
black foil top: reconditioned
