The Brovia 2018 Barolos show just how challenging the vintage was for some growers. Twenty-one days of interrupted rain in May was one of many obstacles the estate had to deal with. There is no getting around the reality that 2018s are ethereal, lacking in depth and show little in the way of site character. The Brovias opted to bottle their 2018s about six weeks earlier than normal. Even so, the wines all come across as fragile. I tasted the 2018 Barolos in November 2021 in Piedmont and then January 2022 in New York and found them consistently disappointing on both occasions.
