    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Fratelli Alessandria, Barolo, San Lorenzo di Verduno, 2015

    A classic Verduno style Barolo. A vineyard near Monvigliero but a little lower and with more sand and less clay in it. Pretty and delicate aromas. Ample, soft round fruit. Full and sensual berry and plum fruit with some fresh-cut flower high notes. Very attractive.

    The 2015 Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno is a powerful, muscular wine, and yet it also has a sense of translucence that is hugely appealing. Iron, smoke, blood, leather, tobacco and incense give the San Lorenzo a distinctly feral, wild quality. I expect the 2015 will always remain a bit rustic in feel, but it certainly has plenty of character, as well as the structure to develop well for a number of years.
