Barolo, 2018
Beautiful aromatic, red fruited nose, bursting with strawberries and cranberries, latterly accompanied by red plums and stones. Succulent, ripe and fresh on the palate, this is super elegant and pretty. Most of this comes from the younger vines (25 years old!) of the very fine Brea vineyard as well as the leftover wine from the estate's top crus that won't fit into their own separate barrels, much of which is Rocche. Quite some regular Barolo!
critic reviews
Brovia's 2018 Barolo is a very good wine for the vintage and within its peer group. It naturally shows the modest structure of the year, but all the elements are nicely balanced. Sweet dried cherry, mint, cedar, tobacco and crushed leaves open nicely. I would prefer to drink the 2018 over the next handful of years. As always, the straight Barolo is a blend of 70% Brea and 30% a mix of the other sites in the range. It is very nicely done.
The Brovia 2018 Barolo is a classic wine with a smooth and silky mouthfeel that is brightened by cassis, dried cherry, tar, licorice and campfire ash. The firm tannins give ample support and contribute to the wines considerable length.
