Brovia 2022 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione

The 2022 Rocche is delicate and aromatic, with raspberry, floral spices, and soft but present tannins. Rocche's uniquely sandy soils make this the closest to Barbaresco in structure. If you like Barbaresco, or even Volnay or Chambolle-Musigny, this is your Barolo. -ML

Rocche di Castiglione is one of the most coveted crus in the appellation, and for good reason: its high-altitude, white-sand soils render a Barolo of dizzying perfume and supreme elegance. Brovia owns a 1.5-hectare parcel of southeast-facing vines at 350 meters altitude, and this is indeed the most refined wine in their lineup year after year. -Rosenthal Wine Merchants
