Brovia Fratelli

Cantina e Vini

“In 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 “terroir”, 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 Garblèt Sue’ in Castiglione Falletto and Ca’Mia and Brea in Serralunga d’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.

he Brovia winery has always been very careful in selecting the best positions for the vineyards. In fact, since 1953 (when the activity started again), the vineyards from which the grapes come are placed in the best positions and terrains; some of them as Rocche and Villero can be considered as very important vineyards with a very long tradition. Today all the grapes come from owned vineyards. The Rocche vineyard in Castiglione Falletto has a quite lean, slightly sandy and loose soil tending to calcareous. The position is South-East and the height is 350 m. The Villero vineyard (Castiglione Falletto) has a moderately clayey, calcareous and compact soil. The position is South-West and the height is 340 m. The Garbelet Sué vineyard (Castiglione Falletto) changes the composition of the soil three times: in the first part it is mainly clay, in the middle it is clay-limestone and in the last part it is prevalently calcareous. The position is South and South-West and the height is 250 m. The Ca’Mia vineyard (Serralunga d’Alba, as well called Brea) has a clay and limestone soil. The position is South – East and South and the height is 350 m.
