Brovia Barolo Villero 2008 is a full-bodied, single-vineyard Nebbiolo red wine from the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, northern Italy. Fratelli Brovia is a family-run estate producing traditionally styled Barolos from vineyards spread over the Castiglione Falleto and Serralunga communes. The Villero vineyard is characterised by a south-west exposition and clay-dominant soils, and produces rich, complex Nebbiolo wines with considerable power and longevity. This opulent expression was matured for two years in a combination of large-format Slavonian and French oak casks. "The 2008 Barolo Villero is impeccable and harmonious from the very first taste. Layers of exotic spices and dark fruit caress the palate, eliminating virtually any sensation of tannin. The 2008 is an unusually fleshy, expressive Villero loaded with class and personality. Dark plums, menthol and a host of balsamic aromas and flavours wrap around the finish. The Villero is a bit rounder and fleshier than the Rocche today, but it is just as gorgeous." Vinous, 2012

Medium red. Cherry, earth, cocoa powder and dried flowers on the lightly medicinal nose; a more liqueur-like cherry aroma emerged with aeration. High-pitched, minerally and fine-grained, with terrific depth to its medicinal dark cherry and floral flavors. A classic, primary Barolo with superb tannins and outstanding persistence.Stephen Tanzer1st November 2011
