Descrizione

Barbera d’Alba Superiore 2023 from Brezza immediately shows a vibrant character: in the glass it opens with notes of ripe red fruits and light spicy hints, without excess. The typical acidity of Barbera is well balanced here, supporting the sip and making it smooth and lively, while the body retains good substance that gives it balance. The tannins are present but refined, merely supporting the structure, and the finish closes on a savory note that invites another sip.

It is a wine well suited to both traditional dishes and more structured preparations: grilled meats, rustic tomato sauces, semi-hard cheeses. Served cool but not cold, it best expresses its freshness and aromatic clarity. Its versatility makes it pleasant throughout a meal. Pleasant and unpretentious on the palate, it is a clear example of contemporary Barbera style: immediate, focused and ready to be shared without fuss.

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
