2020 Crissante Alessandria "Capalot" Barolo

Notes

From the historic Alessandria family, the 2020 “Capalot” Barolo is a powerful and deeply expressive wine from this well-regarded cru in La Morra. Benefiting from the warmth of the 2020 vintage, this Barolo showcases a wonderful combination of rich fruit and classic structure. The nose is deep and complex, with aromas of black cherry, plum, and violet, interwoven with notes of licorice, sweet tobacco, and a hint of new leather. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and well-structured, with a core of dense, dark fruit framed by firm, yet polished tannins and vibrant acidity. The finish is long and persistent, echoing with notes of spice and earth. A stunning, age-worthy Barolo with impressive depth.
