Bricco delle Viole | Barolo MGA

Geological map of the Barolo MGA Bricco delle Viole.

Bricco delle Viole is one of the highest altitude MGAs in the municipality of Barolo, with vineyards between 370 and 490 meters above sea level on predominantly west-facing slopes. The soil consists of weathered, layered Sant'Agata Fossili marl.

The altitude and open exposure give the wines a taut, fruity style with notable freshness — leaner than the neighboring Fossati, but less compact than the wines from Serradenari further away. Despite its cooler position, Bricco delle Viole does not necessarily require a warm year to reach its full potential.
