There is a welcome breadth and generosity of fruit, providing body to cover the tight and crispy tannins. Lifting floral notes strike first, followed by a refreshing sapidity and bitter herb freshness. The fruit is a little darker than usual, brambles mixing with loganberries as well as a touch of mint and cassis leaf. The wine focuses and refines even more with air and finishes with an unerring clarity and tension. A steep, south-east facing Castiglione vineyard with a touch of sand in the clay soils giving fresh, fragrant, elegant wines. Aged in large used oak casks for two years.
Brovia are a traditional Barolo producer, in the winemaking sense not in the vineyard sense. That is to say yields are low but the fermentations are natural and happen in cement tanks before ageing in large old oak casks for 3 years. The estate is situated in Castiglione Falleto between Azelia and Scavino, their vineyards are spread over the Castiglione and Serralunga communes. The wines are pure, characterful and gripping but in a very gentle and moreish style, they have great intensity and charm whilst also expressing individuality and reflect the distinct differences between their great terroirs.
