Brovia – Nebbiolo d’Alba – 2018

Nebbiolo, the Langa’s most representative vine, is undoubtedly so, especially for them, who over the decades have exalted it in all its versions. A Nebbiolo in its basic form, where the grapes come from 40-year-old vineyards in Roero areas with good hillside exposures and sandy soils that guarantee remarkable aromatic quality. After manual selection of the bunches, fermentation takes place spontaneously in steel vats, followed by refinement in the same vats without filtration before bottling. A strong territorial identity, hints of red fruit mixed with underbrush that open up to a long, fine drink with a recognisable tannic texture and a finish of authoritative freshness. A Nebbiolo with the character of a small Barolo.

Description

The Brovia winery was founded by grandfather Giacinto in 1863 in Castiglione Falletto, the heart of the Barolo production area, and after a succession of generations, today we find Elena and her Spanish husband Alessandro Sanchez carrying on the name of this historic winery. The style is traditional, but with a modern and avant-garde touch: they use medium-large French oak barrels for ageing, and organic farming in the vineyard. The winery owns and produces some of the best crus in the Barolo area, such as the Grand Cru Villero in Castiglione Falletto, famous for producing silky Barolos of unparalleled elegance, the Rocche in Castiglione Falletto, famous for producing wines that are both elegant and full of character, the Brea Ca’ Mia, the only vineyard in Serralunga d’Alba with limestone soils, and the Garblet Sue in Castiglione Falletto. The peculiarity of Brovia’s wines is their constant elegance and refinement… their wines are never too hard and tannic, but silky and pleasant to drink even when young.
