Diverse #wine. #Nebbiolo from #Roero. Closed, cloudy and smelling of robust cherries, and bacon fat, oil. Opened up to soft pink flowers, candy apple shell, wet soil. Color is slightly cloudy as unfiltered, bright red throughout from edge to edge. Everything opened over an hour. Flavors of soft strawberry, marachino cherry, candy apple, sweet/sour sauce, smooth. Tannins never explode, but stay moderate, harmonious with acidity. Opened 1/22/17 — 7 years ago

Strong, rich and a tasty red being 9 years old it has a kick to it. The streamers looked like water falls in my glass. Paired with a charcoal BBQ Maui rib and some creamy spinach salad it was delightful Monday night meal. — 9 years ago

Dense Crimson with s cherry red rim. Aromatic primary plummy earthy spicy aromas. A savoury medium to full bodied palate. Medium Intensity and length with fine savoury tannins. A rare red grape type with only 653 Hectares grown in its native Alto Adige and Trentino. Negligible amounts in the new world. A progeny of Teroldego, a grandchild of Pinot, and a cousin of Syrah.

We drank this after the Enrico Serafino and it didn’t take long to realize this was a step up in class and character despite the challenges that Brovia faced in the 2014 vintage; a year in which they sold off half of their holdings. From what I understand, this cuvee, the first of its kind in Brovia’s history, was made using grapes from the lower sector of Brea and two crus from Castiglione Falletto. The idea being that blending the best wines together would be vastly superior to bottling individual and relatively weak wines from each cru. I can say unequivocally that the strategy worked. The “Unio” as they called it, does not come
across as a limpid example of Barolo. Quite then contrary, there is profound depth and concentration that slowly gained in power the longer the bottle was open. No short supply of dark berries accompanied by spices, fresh asphalt, rose bushes, and minerals. A rapturous, tongue smacking finish that lasts for minutes closing with some rather lusty tannins. What a treat. The 2014 Brovia “Unio” should age gracefully and I, for one, will be looking forward to tracking its development. — 6 years ago
