THE WINERY  – BROVIA

The company was founded in 1863 and is headquartered in Castiglione Falletto in Piedmont.; currently it runs by Elena and Cristina Brovia, assisted by Alexis Sanchez, Elena’s husband.

The Company Brovia has always been very careful in choosing the best vineyard locations, over time has been able to select and then to buy large vineyards in the Barolo area: Rocche, Villero and Garblèt Sue’ in Castiglione Falletto and Ca’Mia and Brea in Serralunga d’Alba.

A meticulous philosophy based on respect for their terroir gives the wines a great personality. Elena and Cristina have inherited the work of over 60 harvests by the father Giacinto, who died in 2017.
