Since 1863, nothing and no one has managed to halt the operations of Azienda Agricola Brovia; well, except during the two World Wars. But other than that, it's quite impressive, isn't it?
From its inception, this family-run winery has been producing wines in the heart of the D.O.C.G. Barolo region, located in northern Italy, specifically in Castiglione Falletto (one of the 11 municipalities within the denomination), and has now become an essential part of the area. Currently, the stewardship of this enterprise lies with Elena Brovia and Alex Sánchez, who continue to uphold the family's legacy across the 20 hectares of the estate. This task is by no means easy, as this fourth generation holds responsibility for some of the finest vineyards in the region, such as Rocche, Villero, Garblet Sué, and Brea in Serralunga. The challenge intensifies as the couple is committed to a strictly ecological and sustainable cultivation, which demands countless hours of dedication. A lifetime's devotion solely for the love of the vineyard and the nebbiolo, the queen grape of the north. No experiments. If the classic approach works, why change it? Brovia Barolo is one of their principal creations, and it never goes out of style! Nonetheless, what truly distinguishes Brovia Barolo—like any respectable Barolo—is its extended aging process. Specifically, it spends 24 months in Slavonian oak barrels and an additional 18 months in the bottle. Even so, if the organic cultivation and its lengthy aging still seem insufficient reasons to choose this wine, let its aromas and taste ultimately persuade you.
When something is crafted with love and respect, it is bound to succeed. If you are genuinely seeking something authentic and unforgettable, Brovia Barolo is your wine.
