Villero is Barolo royalty—one of the region's finest terroirs, representing the ultimate expression of Castiglione Falletto's elegant style. Brovia's Villero is a masterclass in traditional winemaking: minimal intervention reveals the cru's mineral-driven personality and age-worthiness. This 1.5L magnum from 2005 remains impeccably structured nearly two decades on. In large format, the wine is neither rushed nor past—it sits in that golden zone where primary fruit and emerging tertiary flavors coexist. Patient collectors will find deep rewards.

Antonio Galloni

96 points

"The 2005 Barolo Villero is a big, powerful wine with the ample frame and broad shoulders that are its signatures. As always, the Villero is not an easy Barolo, but rather a wine built on structure and intensity that still needs time to start resolving. Hints of lavender, spice, new leather and dark stone fruits are fused into the explosive, resonant finish. This classically austere Barolo will require patience and an affinity for tense, powerful wines, but it is a real beauty." —Antonio Galloni
