Fratelli Alessandria Description
Since the mid-19th century, the Alessandria family has called Verduno, at the northern edge of the Barolo zone, home. Then, Verduno was the center of Barolo winemaking—here families first crafted dry Nebbiolo wines in the style we know today. Because of this, the village was internationally recognized as the face of Barolo. Today Verduno is experiencing a renaissance, and it is the “brothers” Alessandria who are guiding the wines of Verduno back to the heights they once held. What Verduno gives is exactly what we crave in our Barolo wines: complexity without heaviness, structure with finesse. “Fratelli Alessandria is one of Piedmont’s under-the-radar jewels,” says Antonio Galloni.
Comprised of declassified Barolo fruit from Neirane, Pisapola, and Sotto Orti in Verduno.
Tasting Note: Aromas of rose, red plums, black raspberries, light pepper. Fine-grained tannins, layered, fresh.
Wine Pairing: Grilled red meat; salumi; pasta with truffles
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
The Fratelli Alessandria 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo Prinsiòt offers an expressive bouquet with wild berry, dried pomegranate and blue flower. The wine's aromatic intensity hits all the high notes and paints a pretty but straightforward portrait of Nebbiolo. This wine closes with elegant tones of crushed white pepper and crushed rose. Fruit is sourced from across Verduno.
Vinous: 90 Points
The 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo is everything a wine in this category should be. It's loaded with crushed red berry fruit, blood orange, cinnamon, spice and cedar. Aromatic and pliant, with fine depth, the Langhe Nebbiolo exudes class and personality. What a beauty.
