Brovia 2020 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione: A Timeless Nebbiolo Masterpiece
Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo grapes on Piedmont’s iconic Rocche di Castiglione slopes, this 2020 vintage embodies Brovia’s legacy of crafting age-worthy Barolos with laser-focused terroir expression.
Tasting Profile
Aromas of crushed black cherries interwoven with rose petal essence and white pepper emerge from the glass. The palate reveals layers of blackberry compote balanced by vibrant acidity and powdery tannins reminiscent of wet river stones—a signature of Castiglione’s microclimate.
Critical Acclaim
Awarded dual 94+ scores from James Suckling and Wine Enthusiast for its “racy structure” and “nuanced wild herb character,” this wine exemplifies Barolo’s tension between power and elegance.
Aging Potential
With 25+ years of projected cellaring life (2027-2045), this offers exceptional value for long-term investors seeking rare Piedmontese vintages with proven track records.
Serving Suggestions
Optimal at 62-65°F (17-19°C), pair with slow-braised Osso Buco or aged Gorgonzola to complement its savory leather notes and bright acidity.
