Fratelli Alessandria - Barolo Monvigliero 2018 (750ml)
Fratelli Alessandria Description
Verduno’s "grand cru" Barolo and a vineyard that finally is getting its due. This south/southwest facing plot forms a perfect amphitheater, at between 750 and 930 feet above sea level. The wine’s aromas are out of this world, powerfully expressive; tannins are suave, and layers of flavor slowly unwind as the wine sits in the glass. 'Monvigliero' deserves to be spoken in the same breath as Barolo’s very top vineyards — and with Fratelli Alessandria behind the bottle, it certainly will.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
The 2018 Barolo Monvigliero shows a beautiful signature of pressed violets, rose garden, white stone, crushed peppercorn and grilled rosemary. The wine is smooth and soft in texture, yet it feels stitched up and firm at the back thanks to the support it gets from those balanced tannins. This wine should hold 20 years or more.
