Bodybuilder doing ballet. A little clumsy now, but hopefully with years of practice, he'll become a dancer worthy of the role of Prince Siegfried in Swan Lake. Strength with elegance and poise!

Dense, deep, powerful and rich. Young, but a real pleasure to drink.

(Tasted at La Festa del Barolo, Del Posto NY)
In 2013 Brovia's "Rocche di Castiglione" presents itself as a pretty huge and hulking wine. But nevertheless it has this typical perfumed nose with tons of red flowers and small red berries. In the palate it showed a rather wild character for a "Rocche", with the urge to have more time to bring the massive fruit, tannins and acidity in a perfect balance. I can't wait to see this wine age.
