WE LOVE IT BECAUSE:

Fragrances of fresh leather, camphor, and pipe tobacco are evident in the glass, accompanied by ripe dark berries and a hint of blue flower. The expansive, captivating finish boasts a lovely inner scent and is truly stunning. The firm structure and young austerity make way for a tense palate highlighting notes of raspberry compote, Morello cherry, and licorice, supported by a backbone of noble tannins.

In the sheltered valley of Sarmassa, a privileged position halfway up the hill, lies the 25-year-old vines of the Bricco Vineyard. According to village elders, it's the spot where the snow always melts the fastest. This Barolo, not made every vintage, is produced from the formerly known as Bricco parcel, vinified separately before bottling. It's compared with other parcels of the same MGA Sarmassa Vigna, bringing together the best of both worlds - the elegance of Cannubi and the structure of Sarmassa. The Bricco bottling is a blend of south-facing parcels within Sarmassa.

Located in the charming town of Barolo, this family-run winery has been in operation since 1885 and takes its name from Giacomo Brezza, who introduced bottled wine in 1910 alongside his father Antonio. Surrounded by beautiful vineyards, as well as their own restaurant and hotel, the fourth generation proudly maintains 100% organic farming practices as part of their winemaking philosophy. Their dedication to the vineyard and use of natural methods like green manure and composting results in vines that have thrived for over 75 years.  In the cellar, they continue to use traditional methods, aging their wines in large Slavonian oak barrels with no filtering or clarifying.

Piedmont translates literally to "Foot of the Mountains" in this case, the Alps. The region has many parallels to Burgundy, vineyards handed down through generation, increasing demand paired with increasing price. The top grape of the region is Nebbiolo, labelled regionally as Barolo, Barbaresco or Langhe Nebbiolo. The wines that require long term aging reward time in the cellar, while you are waiting for them to mature, enjoy regional wines of Barbera or Dolcetto.
