Brovia Barolo Villero 2020

Tasting notes

Brovia owns a hectare and a half of old vines (planted in 1961) situated at 340 meters altitude in the characterful southwest-facing cru of Villero in Castiglione Falletto. The site’s clay-limestone marl (with sandy elements) renders a wine of notable structure—one which often assumes a dark, brooding personality in its youth. If Rocche is an ice skater, Villero is a sprinter, and compared to Rocche’s bright red fruit, Villero leans more toward the blue and black, with an earthier spice element and a greater overall sense of solidity.
