2020 Brovia Villero, Barolo DOCG, Italy Oltretorrente 1927 & the oldest vinesSome may argue the case but, personally, if we had to pick one of these cru Barolo as the king of kings, our vote would go the Villero. The package is complete: strong yet elegant, powerful but dignified, above all pure and balanced. No matter the vintage, this special site in Castiglione Falletto yields a consistently marvelous wine that will age with consummate grace. Dark and brooding in its youth, it matures into a regal wine of exceptional depth.
