Thanks to its plush and velvety nature, this is a wine with universal appeal. Barolo Bricco Sarmassa opens in big fashion with aromas of black cherry, Indian spice, vanilla and dark espresso bean. It’s tight and tannic in the mouth but, fundamentally, the wine’s saving grace is that it’s never too extracted or overblown.

Brezza’s finely nuanced Cannubi expression of Nebbiolo delivers sweet spice tones of cinnamon, clove and nutmeg followed by delicate tones of root beer, drying mineral, soy sauce and forest fruit. The wine is fine, compact and chiseled on the close with a long, structured finish. It’s very elegant overall.

Here’s a beautiful Barolo that exhibits a compact, streamlined style that would pair with lighter- colored meats such as pork or veal. There are pretty earthy notes of wild mushroom and dried fruit followed by ethereal tones of soy and cola. Drink after 2018.

Here’s yet another extraordinary wine from the famed Cannubi cru of Barolo. In this expression from the Brezza family, you’ll be rewarded with bright aromas of forest berry, licorice, earth, leather and cola. The wine is intense, generous and very elegant. Pair it with chicken in morel mushroom sauce.

Sarmassa offers slightly more opulence and a fuller palate of flavors (compared to the estate’s Cannubi cru) with lingering tones of dark chocolate, cinnamon, pressed flowers and forest fruit. The mouthfeel is soft and generous with round notes of tobacco and spice.

Brezza’s Cannubi cru is a beautiful wine that balances tradition and elegance. “Refined” is the best word to describe the wine’s ethereal aromas of forest berry, measured spice, licorice and powdery mineral. The wine is vibrant and exciting in the mouth with a long, cooling menthol finish. Brezza was founded in 1885.

Sarmassa comes together to form a beautifully balanced and generous whole. You’ll get intensity and power, backed by traditional aromas of black fruit, spice and pressed violets. The delivery is vertical and immediate yet the wine offers long staying power and determined persistency.
