The Estate Iconic reference of the Barolo appellation, Azienda Agricola Brezza Giacomo e Figli has been cultivating vines since 1885. The estate produced its very first vintage in 1910. Still guided by the same passion and one with know-how passed down from generation to generation, the Brezza family is now in its fourth generation. Located in the historic heart of the Barolo appellation, in the province of Cuneo, north of Piedmont, the estate is only 500 meters from the village entrance of Barolo. On these iconic lands, Azienda Agricola Brezza crafts great Italian wines, full of elegance and character. The vineyard This Piedmont estate spans 31 hectares, including 20 hectares of vines classified as DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita) or DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata). Brezza’s vines are planted on some of the most renowned terroirs of the appellation, spread across the communes of Monforte, Novello and Alba. The estate notably owns a plot on the famous Cannubi cru, considered one of the most prestigious in Barolo and recognized since 1752, making it the oldest cru in Italy. The vineyard is managed under certified organic farming, respecting the terroir and the environment. The wine Produced from the eponymous vineyard, Cannubi benefits from a unique terroir with a geology mixing sand, clay and loam, with a favorable southeast exposure. With a centuries-old reputation, this cru is known for Barolo wines of very high quality, combining finesse, complexity and longevity. Vinification and aging Harvesting is done manually with rigorous grape sorting. After destalking, the berries are lightly crushed and then transferred to stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature to start fermentation, which lasts 7 to 8 days at around 26 °C. The maceration, punctuated by regular remontages, lasts 10 to 15 days. Malolactic fermentation is then carried out in concrete tanks at about 18 °C. The wine is then aged for two years in Slovenian oak barrels, followed by an additional year of bottle aging at 15 °C. Blend Nebbiolo (100 %) Critic tasting note: (vintage 2018) “Produced from the heart of Barolo’s most prestigious historic vineyard, this charming and perfumed wine offers captivating aromas of camphor, pressed rose, new leather and wild berries. Firm, elegantly structured and tasty, it reveals on the palate flavors of juicy red cherry, crushed raspberry, licorice and soft spices, supported by taut and refined tannins. Its fresh acidity gives it a good balance and will allow it to improve for many years. To drink between 2026 and 2038. Kerin O’Keefe” – Wine Enthusiast
