The Story

Garblèt Sue', also known as “Altenasso,” is a subsection of the cru of Fiasco in Castiglione Falletto. Soils here are of sand and clay-limestone marl, but they are richer and less well-drained than those higher on the hill in Fiasco proper. If Garblèt Sue' typically shows a hair’s breadth less complexity than its two Castiglione Falletto brethren, it compensates with a generous, exuberant personality and a tendency to drink better earlier.

About Fratelli Brovia

Producer Story

The Brovia family established themselves as winegrowers in the hamlet of Castignlione Falletto in 1863, amassing over time an enviable collection of vineyards in some of the zone's greatest crus, as well as a sizable holding in the cru Brea in Serralunga d'Alba. Rosenthal Wine Merchant has imported the family's gorgeously traditional Barolo since the 1978 vintage - first with Giacinto Brovia, who revived viticulture here in 1953, and today with his daughter Elena and her formidably talented husband Alex Sanchez.
