ā€œIn the wonderful hills of Barolo wine, where the landscape begins to take on a different, more animated guise, there is a family that has always been associated with wine: the BROVIAs.
The Winery had been set up as far back as 1863 and is settled in Castiglione Falletto. Paying always attention to the importance of the ā€œterroirā€, with time and an uncompromising attitude to the selection of the finest vineyards in Langa, the family has been able to acquire great vineyards in the Barolo growing area: Rocche, Villero and GarblĆØt Sueā€™ in Castiglione Falletto and Caā€™Mia and Brea in Serralunga dā€™Alba.
Thus, the philosophy of the Winery is to propose great personality Barolos (as with the other wines produced), all made in the same way, but with very specific and clean characteristics, always different among them; Barolos that faithfully reflect the richness of our great Langa vineyards.ā€œ Read more
