Fratelli Alessandria Speziale Verduno Pelaverga 2019

Meet Pelaverga Piccolo, a grape you can't ignore when you mention Verduno, as Pelaverga Piccolo is exclusive to this village. Specifically, this wine comes from 2.6 ha vineyards located at 250-350m above sea level. Macerated for 6-8 days, aged between stainless and cement for six months.

Beautiful and seamless wine. Aromatic, almost perfumed bouquet: red berries (like barberry, cherry and cornel) mixed with red flowers. Not complex but almost perfectly balanced and juicy with well-integrated tannin. A wine to drink solo; enjoy it and the scenery (if you have one).

Fratelli Alessandria

Fratelli Alessandria is a historic winery in the village of Verduno. Its story spans back to 1830 and is interleaved with the famous Barolo (e.g. when it transformed from semi-sweet wine to the "king of wines and wine for kings").
