Brovia Nebbiolo d'Alba 2018

Country: Italy

Region: Piedmonte

Type: Red Wine

Grape: Nebbiolo

The Brovia estate encompasses 19.2 hectares with 55% of the production dedicated to Barolo, 25% in Dolcetto, 10% to Barbera and the remaining 10% produced from Arneis, Nebbiolo d’Alba and Freisa. The Brovias are extremely conscientious winegrowers. They farm organically and harvest is done entirely by hand.

Brovia wines are vinified in the classic style. Grapes are lightly crushed before going into the fermentation tanks. The length of the fermentation period depends on the grape variety but the Nebbiolo for various Barolo cuvées can extend as long as a month or more. The wines are bottled without filtration.

A beautiful expression of nebbiolo, this wine has a ruby red color, with violet and raspberry aromas. Medium-weight with a velvety texture and lengthy finish.
