Fratelli Alessandria Barolo Movigliero 2015 OWC (Magnum 1.5L)  - First Bottle

Reviews

96+ Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
Monvigliero in the Verduno township is quickly becoming one of the most celebrated and talked about crus in Barolo. The Fratelli Alessandria estate was among the first to understand its potential, and indeed, this wine was first released in 1978. Fast forward to today and you will find that the 2015 Barolo Monvigliero is an absolutely classic interpretation that stays faithful to past incarnations. The wine offers pretty berry aromas intermingled with spice, licorice and crushed stone. A floral aroma of red rose also appears. The tannins are solid and will require extra years of bottle aging.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!

WA96+ Mag of the hottest vineyard in Barolo right now, Monvigliero! These come an awesome 1-pack wood boxes and are a must for anyone serious about their Nebbiolo.

We are freshly back from the Barolo region and we can say with confidence that the ‘15 vintage is shaping up beautifully. Now beginning their slow evolution, they are just coming into their own. Additionally, you'll notice some big scores, so they are getting snapped up by savvy collectors hyper-quick.

Verduno, in the far north of the Barolo zone, is on fire right now and Fratelli Alessandria is leading the charge. These wines, even in a warm growing season like 2015, have so much energy and verve to balance out the gorgeous ripe berry fruits and anisette flavors. There is just so much to love in these wines, they come with our highest recommendation. Mixing and matching a case of these gems is an absolute must for Barolo lovers. FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED…!

About the Producer

At the northern edge of the Barolo zone, the Alessandria family, since the mid-19th century, has called this gentle landscape home. In 1870, when the family first established their farm, calling it Fratelli Alessandria, Verduno was the center of Barolo winemaking—it was here where families first crafted dry Nebbiolo wines in the style we know today. Today Verduno is experiencing a renaissance, and it is the “brothers” Alessandria who are guiding the wines of Verduno back to the heights they once held. It is of course a family affair—the brothers Gian Battista and Alessandro, and Alessandro’s son, Vittore, are the stewards of this generations-old estate.
