Note di degustazione
The 2012 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is the standout wine among Brovia's newest releases from 2012. The wine is vibrant and tonic with clear aromas of wild berry, grilled herb, cola and candied licorice. The mouthfeel is silky and long. This vintage is more subtle and low-key than others, but the wine delivers its trademark complexity nonetheless.

Castiglione Falletto. Mid ruby with orange tinges. Multi-layered spice and cherry fruit nose. Youthful yet ripe and mouth-filling and with a muscular structure. Generous fruit yet tannic. (WS)
The 2012 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is extremely beautiful, open-knit and seductive. In other words; pure Rocche. Freshly cut flowers, mint, sweet red berries and bright spices come together in an effortless, lifted Barolo endowed with real class and pedigree. Unusually open at this stage, the 2012 is quite expressive, with striking purity in its fruit and fabulous overall balance. This racy, perfumed Barolo should drink well with minimal cellaring. There is so much to like.
From 40-year-old vines. Bottled in August 2015. Lustrous ruby with orange tinges. Exciting, peppery nose of raspberry with just the merest hint of leather. Truly transparent. Sweet raspberry with an intense, grainy texture. Very slow to fully unfurl. Promising. Fresh and long, but really tight at the moment. (WS)
