€110.00
Tax included
100% hand-harvested Nebbiolo grapes in Castiglione Falletto, in what is considered a top cru of Barolo. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 300-350 meters with a southeast-facing exposure.
Harvesting is done by hand and fermentation is instead carried out in cement containers for about 20-25 days. Aging in Slavonian and French oak barrels is prolonged for a period of 24-30 months.
Wine with full flavors and aromas. No filtration is provided before bottling.
An extremely fine and elegant wine, balanced and intense. The palate is slowly coated with round, refined tannin.
Brovia
The Brovia winery was founded in 1863 in Castiglione Falletto, Piedmont. A meticulous philosophy marked by respect for terroir, beyond fashions, gives the wines great personality. Elena and Cristina have, with seriousness, dedication, maximum commitment without ever getting too big for their boots, taken over the work of more than 60 vintages from their father Giacinto, who passed away in 2014.
Brovia's name evokes a very precise idea of what a great Barolo wants to be: gracefulness and elegance almost rarefied, to return with surgical constancy the moods of vineyards of superior stature such as Rocche, Villero and Garblet Sué in Castiglione Falletto, or Ca' Mia in Serralunga.
Vinification and aging take place without invasive technological interventions that would alter the natural expression of the harvested grapes.
