Description
"Prinsiòt", is the historical nickname, in Piedmontese dialect, given to our family. This wine has a precise objective: to bring out all the elegance and aromatic finesse of Nebbiolo and to manage the tannic texture so that it is silky and balanced.

From this winery
- Start up year: 1870
- Oenologist: Franco Alessandria
- Bottles produced: 90.000
- Hectares: 15
The heart of the winery lies in the large 18th century house with its understated yet majestic lines, very close to the historic centre of the village of Verduno.
Gian Battista, his wife Flavia, brother Alessandro and son Vittore are the proud custodians of the family’s winemaking tradition and passion, which date back over a century, and represent the seventh and eighth generations of winemakers (the first three generations as Fratelli Dabbene and then as Fratelli Alessandria following a marriage which took place in around 1870).
The winery vinifies only estate grown grapes and has maintained a family dimension. These qualities make it possible to establish a direct and "personal" relationship with the individual vineyards and barrels, an invisible but important connection that we hope will reach and inspire consumers when they drink our wines.
