The Brovia family has been making wine in the heart of the Barolo district of the Piedmont since the 1860s. Two granddaughters now orchestrate the happenings on the estate, and take extreme care of their organically farmed vines. 

The sole white wine of the estate is produced in the Roero district from an 0.80 hectare plot in Vezza d’Alba.  The soil is essentially sandy in composition and sits at 340 meters altitude on south-facing slopes.  The vineyard was planted in 1980.  Harvest (manual) normally occurs in mid-September.  The grapes are briefly macerated and the fermentation occurs at controlled temperatures (around 15 degrees Celsius) for two to three weeks.  The wine rests in stainless steel until the early spring months of the following year and is usually released to the market, after several months of bottle aging, in late summer/early fall.  Approximately 4500 bottles are produced annually, 3,000 of which are shipped to the USA.
