    Brovia hits it out of the ballpark with this set of wines from the 2019 vintage. The 2019 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is a darker, broader expression that stands on its own thanks to that special intensity. This expression veers toward dark fruit and black cherry, and there is a lot of iron ore or rusty nail at the back. The wine is almost sanguine in character, but in a manner that enhances all the other beautiful characteristics on hand. The mouthfeel is slightly more open-knit and rich, making this a better pairing partner to hearty meat dishes.

    The Rocche di Castiglione exhibits supremely fresh and clear fruit aromas that become even more intriguing with balsamic overtones. Its palate is full-bodied, harmoniously tannic, and concludes with a lasting finish.
