justerini & brooks tasting note

From Serralunga d’Alba, Brea is home to the oldest vines of the Brovia estate – the Ca Mia plot was planted in 1958. A 65-year-old monopole vineyard with a relatively high amount of limestone soils as well as clay that faces south southeast – it is situated on the eastern side of the commune. The wines tends to show dark, layered and silky fruits with supporting floral and menthol notes.

critic reviews

96+/100Monica Larner,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

This is Brovia's main wine from Serralunga d'Alba. With the amber-colored bottle label, the 2020 Barolo Brea Vigna Ca' Mia has a similar mineral element like we saw in Brovia's wines from Castiglione Falletto, only here they appear along the rusty or ferrous side of the spectrum. There are blue and red fruits, but you also get baked brick, lavender and grilled herb. This wine is set up for long cellar aging. Production is 5,000 bottles.

95/100Antonio Galloni,Vinous

The 2020 Barolo Brea Vigna Ca' Mia expresses all the magic of this Serralunga site. Wild herbs, menthol, licorice, incense, crushed flowers, mint and sage all run through a deep, layered Barolo that hits all the right notes. Here, too, the tannins feel remarkably polished for a young Barolo, especially one from Serralunga. Readers will have a hard time keeping their hands off of this. The 2020 has been totally alluring in several recent tastings.
