Brovia, Barolo Rocche di Castiglione, 2021
The Rocche di Castiglione is Brovia's expression of minerality and finesse—a wine that showcases what happens when you farm extremely steep, challenging terrain. This south-facing cru sits at 300-350 meters elevation on sandy, calcareous soils that impart ethereal minerality and distinction. The wines from here demand longer aging than most Barolos; the 2021 will benefit from cellaring until 2031 and can age through 2046. Brovia's spontaneous fermentation in cement and aging in large French and Slavonian oak casks emphasize the wine's delicate character. The 2021 is fragrant and all about finesse: aromas of rose, perfumed berry, menthol and dark spice, with a nuanced and delicate palate that builds intensity.
