The Fratelli Alessandria Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno 2019 is a profound and structured expression of Nebbiolo, opening with complex aromas of ripe wild cherry, blackcurrant, dried blood orange, mint, and crushed cloves. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and powerful, delivering juicy dark fruit flavors and a deep savory character framed by tightly woven, assertive tannins. It maintains a beautiful balance between rich fruit weight and a fresh mineral drive, culminating in a long, elegant finish that is both powerful and harmonious, promising significant evolution with age.
The Fratelli Alessandria estate is a historic, family-owned winery located in the village of Verduno, one of the northernmost communes in the Barolo DOCG region. The winery has been producing wine since the mid-1800s and is currently run by the fifth generation of the family. They are known for their traditional approach to winemaking, focusing on showcasing the distinct terroir of their various cru holdings, particularly those in Verduno (like their famed Monvigliero vineyard) and Monforte d'Alba (like Gramolere). The family is dedicated to minimal intervention, allowing their Nebbiolo grapes to express purity and elegance characteristic of their specific sites
