No nose. Very dry…tannins, dirt, earthy. Enjoyed it, but nothing overly notable. — 3 years ago
Just lovely. Nose of cherry pie, extremely dry and tanic, with the finish of dark chocolate. — 6 years ago
Great wine. Long finish and a great nose. Classic Barolo. Need to decant at least one hour before drinking to allow this wine to open up. Very nice — 7 years ago
Ram loved it. — 7 years ago
Hint of peppermint on the nose rolls back to reveal wormwood and roses, chocolate ganache, rhubarb, and dried grapefruit peel. Velvety and complex, with peppercorn, red apple peel, cinnamon dust, dried rose petal, dried violet, and roobios tea.

Last vintage until 2022. Smallest production. Most known. Longest to evolve. Tasting days with low pressure are not good — 6 years ago
Classic Barolo — 7 years ago
(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. — 7 years ago
Light reddish in color with light intensity.
Really pretty nose, with nice elegance.
Light to medium in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.
Showing raspberries, cherries, red currants, light wood, spices, wild flowers, chocolates and tobacco.
Medium plus on the finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very tasty Barbaresco with some nice age to it. Elegant and rich. Complex with good structure.
This 8 year old Barbaresco is still young, and will continue to age nicely in the next 15 to 20 years. I had the 1998 not too long ago and it was so much better.
Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.
100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged for 5 years in Oak and Concrete tanks.
14% alcohol by volume.
91 points.

Great! A plum and leather with smoke (from smokehouse). But, I think, the acidity is the key. Like a final touch. — 4 years ago
Last one; still very solid to go with fabulous pizzoccheri on a cold winter night. — 6 years ago
Tar, rose petals and everything Barolo should be, but don't see it getting any better with more time in the bottle — 7 years ago
Great well aged langhe nebbiolo. Certainly quite secondary at this point. Lots of bricking in the glass. Mushrooms and decaying leaves in a good way. Smooth, mouth filling, and good acid. — 8 years ago
