Description
In Australia, the name Brezza has become synonymous with Barolo, Barbera and Dolcetto from Piedmont. It’s a combination of the hospitality shown by the Brezza family in their Hotel Barolo (in the town of Barolo itself) and the robust, authentic and value wines Enzo Brezza produces in his winery underneath the Hotel.

89 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous “Enzo Brezza describes 2012 as a year that was warm towards the end of the growing season with fewer of the diurnal shifts that are typical. The skins were on the lighter side, so it is not a surprise to find some of the wines, especially at the lower end, showing a bit less overall depth than normal. Brezza remains a solid source for readers who enjoy traditionally-made Barolos. The 2012 Barolo is a pretty, soft wine that will give up its many charms with minimal time in bottle. Crushed flowers, tobacco, spices and dried cherries are some of the signatures. Firm veins of underlying tannin give the 2012 its sense of proportion and overall classicism. Mid-weight and gracious, the 2012 should drink well with another few years in bottle. Over the time I followed it, the Barolo opened up nicely. The San Pietro, Ravera, San Lorenzo and Fossati are some of the main vineyard sites. Drink 2017 – 2017” RRP $95
