A smooth interwoven silkiness is what best characterizes Bricco delle Viole. Coming from its namesake vineyard, it is located on the highest part of the Comune of Barolo. From its uniquely high position you can see, and almost touch, the stunning Alpine mountains: a Barolo di Barolowhere the characteristic notes of Nebbiolo settle into its most delicate and elegant version.

Approachable now with 2013’s riper red cherry notes. If it were less expensive, I’d fill up my cellar with this stuff. Certainly can age, but this is a balanced and elegant Nebbiolo that you can decant and enjoy now.

Maddie has a great nose. Smelled the 2013 Albe - "this smells like pink roses" and the 2013 Bricco del Viole - "this smells like red roses and red cherries". Francesca signed this one for her. 21st Bday bottle (rating is for 2013)

I had not had this since I was in Piedmont with the wine maker years ago. It’s just terrific now! Soft and approachable with real depth and character.
