2021 Fratelli Alessandria "San Lorenzo di Verduno" Barolo

Review Date: 02/2025The 2021 San Lorenzo di Verduno from Fratelli Alessandria is a stunner, starting with its intense fragrance of violet, rose, perfumed berry, forest floor and new leather. The palate is full-bodied and utterly delicious, delivering ripe black cherry, black raspberry, licorice and white truffle before a savory finish. Tightly knit, fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity keep it balanced while a hint of almond liqueur lingers on the finish. (KO)

Notes
From the historic Alessandria family, the 2021 “San Lorenzo di Verduno” is a stunning Barolo that perfectly balances the aromatic grace of Verduno with the underlying power of this excellent cru. From the classic and structured 2021 vintage, this wine is a masterclass in finesse. The nose is deep and expressive, with aromas of dark cherry, plum, and dried rose, layered with savory notes of licorice, tobacco, and a hint of balsamic. On the palate, it’s medium-to-full-bodied, with a core of pure, dark fruit framed by firm, yet incredibly polished tannins and vibrant acidity. The finish is long, savory, and mineral-driven. A beautifully structured and age-worthy Barolo with decades of life ahead.
