From the producer: 

Just in excellent vintages. Only after resting in the cellar for 10 years.

In the Riserva Bricco Voghera vineyard the vines more than 95 years old produce unique grapes.

Incredible concentration. Dried flowers, dried fruits, great freshness and aromatic intensity. Black cherry, prune, blackberry with rose, violet and dark chocolate. Round tannins, generous, with endless length.

Aging in wood for 5 years and another 5 in bottle. Elegance, charm and power.
Each Riserva is a Riserva to be remembered.

One of the stars of Serralunga (though actually based in Castiglione and with some holdings there as well) and one of the few in the village to take a modernist approach. For them, it works, and it works beautifully. With every vintage Azelia seems to get better and better at achieving ultra-refined expressions of very specific -- and often very special -- terroirs. Azelia has managed to veer back towards Piedmont traditionalism (the wines now undergo lengthy macerations and are aged exclusively in giant casks) while continuing to maximize purity of expression and accessibility.

Professional Reviews

Decanter

D 95
"Long ageing in botte and bottle gives a mature, autumnal expression. It is perfumed and nuanced with tobacco, bitter chocolate, spice and balsamic herbs weaving throughout. Generous and round, this fills the mouth with plush, rich tannins. Seamless in delivery and explosive on the finish. Bricco Voghera is steep โ€“ so steep no one wants to work it according to Azeliaโ€™s Luigi Scavino. The estateโ€™s centenarian vines have been bottled as a Riserva in select years since 2000. interestingly, this includes both the cool, wet 2014 as well as this 2009 which was a very warm vintage."
