Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

Fratelli Alessandria, Barolo, Comune del Verduno, 2017

The inaugural vintage and first of its type in the village, Alessandria’s 2017 Barolo is a pure expression of the commune, being a blend of five different Verduno vineyards. Supple and sumptuous with a fine typically “Verduno” perfume, this offers beautiful, engaging, chalky fruit. Complex flavours of sweet Victoria plum with hints of blueberry caress the palate with a salt-washed stone character giving sapidity and spark to the finish. Attractive, tactile and deeply satisfying. After a month of gentle the wine is then aged for 3 years in large wooden vats.

Fratelli Alessandria

Fratelli Alessandria

An historic Verduno estate that dates back as far as the 8th century. A true family affair Vittore Alessandria, his mother Flavia, father Gian Battista & uncle Ale have been working hard in recent years to give more precision to their charming wines: more leaves, fewer treatments in the vineyards, along with the investment into a battery of Swiss coopered Slavonian oak botti have all helped to give increased focus to the wines. Made in a traditional and non-interventionist way, the wines are fermented gently and slowly before elevage in large oak cask for three years. These are some of the aromatic, elegant and charming Barolos you’ll find.
