While we are fortunate that the fashion for big & bold, flashy & opulent has seen its day in Barolo, that doesn't mean that every traditionally made Barolo manages to achieve the harmony and elegance that we seek—but Brezza delivers.

The wines from this address have always been good, but they've become truly fine in recent years. Enzo is the driving force behind the huge step up in quality that this old estate has taken in the past decade or so, as well as their conversion to organic viticulture. He makes unfailingly honest and delicate wines of purpose.

Brezza's wines are all from hand-harvested estate fruit and are fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts. The Baroli are aged in 3,000L untoasted Slavonian oak botti. None of the wines are fined or filtered. The results are classic beauties of red fruit and charm.

Professional Reviews

Wine Enthusiast

WE 94
"Firmly structured, this opens with aromas of star anise, leather, camphor and scorched forest floor. Full-bodied and still youthfully austere, the palate offers Morello cherry, licorice and tobacco framed in tightly wound, assertive tannins. It's nervy and needs time to fully develop to its full potential. 2027–2037." -Kerin O'keefe
