Descrizione

Brezza’s Barolo DOCG comes from vineyards located in the municipalities of Barolo, Monforte d’Alba and Novello, in the south-western part of the appellation. It is made from Nebbiolo grapes, specifically the Lampia sub-variety. The vines grow at approximately 300 metres above sea level on clay-silt, sandy and silty soils. The vineyards face east and west and are trained on vertical trellises using traditional Guyot pruning.

The wine is made with a shorter maceration than the Barolo wines produced from the family’s major single vineyard sites. It then matures for two years in large wooden casks, followed by a further year in bottle. In the glass, it expresses the character of Nebbiolo through structure, elegance and an especially expressive aromatic profile even in its youth. This Barolo offers an accessible introduction to the diversity of the appellation, balancing intensity, finesse and a clear sense of its vineyard origins.

Winery history

The Brezza family has owned vineyards in Barolo since 1885; the company name comes from Giacomo Brezza and the first documented bottling dates to the early 20th century. The business has remained family-run and has developed by preserving the historic cellars while combining tradition with some technological interventions in winemaking.

Production philosophy

Enhancing the crus and the Langhe territory, prioritizing winemaking that respects the grapes' characteristics: a traditional approach for the great reds and stainless-steel vinification for the fresher styles. Cultivation is oriented toward organic farming, as evidenced by the company's certification.

Terroir and vineyards

The winery is located in the municipality of Barolo, Piedmont. Its estate vineyards include parcels within the MGA of Cannubi, Castellero and Sarmassa; there are also vineyard plots in other municipalities of the Langhe such as Monforte d'Alba, Novello and in the area between Alba and Diano d'Alba.

Awards and recognitions
