Product Notes

Fratelli Alessandria Barolo wine, an Italian masterpiece, embodies a perfect blend of power and elegance. Rich and complex, it boasts ethereal aromas of dark cherries, dried roses, spices, and underbrush. The palate lures with stunning depth, velvety tannins, and voluptuous roundness balanced by resolute acidity. Matured for years in large oak barrels, this claret-hued Barolo finishes exceptionally long and satisfying. This timeless wine presents a charming paradox of muscular intensity and refined grace making it a sublime choice for any connoisseur's collection.

Tasting Notes

Iris, rose petal and menthol aromas take shape in the glass. On the taut elegant palate, polished tannins support sour cherry, cranberry and star anise. It's balanced and almost racy, with vibrant acidity. Drink 2019–2026.
