Fratelli Alessandria Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno 2018
San Lorenzo is a hill in Verduno next to that of Monvigliero, with the same type of soil, but slightly less elevated and not quite so steep. The wine that originates here is considered finer and more “feminine”. A very complex and balanced Barolo that brings out the typical floral sensations of the Nebbiolo grape. The palate is elegant and harmonious with tannins that are usually quite sweet and smooth.

Colour

Ruby-garnet.

Bouquet

Fruity framework of cherry and raspberry, blood orange, then clove, cinchona, potpourri and liquorice.

Flavour

Soft and full on the palate, vigorous in acidity and flavour. Lovely fruity and balsamic finish.

Pairing

Lamb tajine with plums and almonds.
