Fratelli Alessandria Barolo Gramolere 2016
$69.95! Normally $80...WA97, VN96, WE96. This is destined to be one of the greats in your cellar!
We are bursting with pride to have a bit of Fratelli Alessandria’s single-cru “Gramolere” that recently landed in our warehouse. The Gramolere bottling has been described as “very Monforte”, with its powerful structure, minerality and often savory note. Fantastically priced at $69.95 -- and, as you know by now from all of our ranting and raving, 2016 is THE vintage to buy Piemonte wines!
The winery dates back about 1870. Located in Verduno, it was one of the very first Piemontese producers to start making the dry, ageable style of Barolo we know today. Alessandria’s three single-vineyard wines are vinified the same way – 25 days +/- fermentation and maceration, aging in 20-50hl oak; they are object lessons in terroir.
ONLY 120 BOTTLES TO SELL! While it lasts!
