The Brezza family is steeped in Barolo tradition, dating back to the 1880s.  The family and their winemaking styles are decidedly old-school, letting the Nebbiolo grape show its captivating aromatic qualities without any fuss. Brezza wines always offer insane value without lacking in any measure of quality, remaining something of a sommelier secret, yet Brezza is a must-stop on a trip to Barolo (due in great part to their excellent restaurant right above the cellar). Their Barolo normale does not require a ton of age before drinking, but an hour or two in a decanter will help immensely. Like any good Barolo (but especially for the highly rated 2021 vintage) a few years in the cellar will reward the patient collector.
