Product Notes

From the lush vineyards of Piedmont, Italy comes the classic Fratelli Alessandria Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno. This premium wine boasts a striking balance of rich, nuanced flavours. The initial, robust notes of ripe cherry and dark plum gently subside into delicate undertones of smoke, leather, and spice. Its robust tannins lend it a pleasing structure, rounding off the overall experience on the palate. With its deep garnet hue and powerful structure, this Barolo adds a touch of Italian elegance to any occasion. Decant this brilliant wine for an optimal tasting experience, and perfectly pair it with game, mushrooms or truffle-based dishes.

Tasting Notes

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.
