Tasting Notes

The Wine Independent Susan Hulme - 13 Jul 22
The 2018 Fratelli Alessandria Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno has spent 3 years in large 25 hectoliter oak botte yet it retains its bright, ruby color. The aromas are of spice, pepper, and lightly fragrant cherry with quite fine but grippy tannins on the palate. There is a very nice flow and harmony to this wine. The finish is bright, juicy, enjoyable, and very drinkable. Vittore Alessandria explains how they like a gentle extraction: “We have a long and soft extraction, with 1 month on the skins from the end of fermentation. We keep the cap wet, but we don't crush the cap, so there are very low amounts of sediment from extraction.”

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 10 Jan 23
The 2018 Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno is a wild, beguiling beauty. Wild cherry, sage, lavender, blood orange, scorched earth and menthol give the 2018 an exotic quality that is so appealing. Dark and tannic, the San Lorenzo shows the more virile side of Verduno off to great effect. This is impressive.
Drinking Date: 2025 - 2038

Known for deep complexity, Barolo offers rich flavours of dark cherries, roses, truffles, and spices, with high acidity and firm tannins. It ages exceptionally well, evolving in depth and nuance. Barolo's diverse terroirs create a range of styles, from powerful to delicate. Top producers include Gaja, Bruno Giacosa, Giuseppe Rinaldi, and Marchesi di Barolo, all of whom exemplify Barolo's tradition and quality.
