    • Gianfranco Alessandria's Barolo red wine has been an undiscovered jewel for years. This is even more true for the 2020 vintage, which is beautifully straightforward and balanced.

    The berries for the Gianfranco Alessandria Barolo 2020 DOCG come from various Nebbiolo slopes of the family in the municipality of Monforte D'Alba. The hand-picked and carefully selected grapes are lightly pressed and destemmed. Fermentation takes place in vertical fermentation tanks with a controlled temperature and a short maceration time. The wines are then aged in French barriques and last 24 months. After a short bottle storage period, the Barolo is then sold.

    The diverse aromas are impressive, with notes of sweet, red berries, spices and dry flowers. The hearty and soft tannins are very balanced alongside the fine fruit sweetness and the abundant acidity. The finish has a good length and the acidity at the end makes the wine appear slim and elegant. A very successful Barolo!

    The family-run winery Gianfranco Alessandria is located in the heart of the Barolo municipality of Monforte D'Alba. Gianfranco is now the third generation to run this small winery with the great support of his wife Bruna and his daughters Marta and Vittoria. The vineyards are all located in a south-eastern orientation in the magnificent Gran Cru location of Monforte D'Alba. This geographical situation enables the production of particularly elegant, long-lasting Barolo wines with first-class structure and freshness. “The wine is made in the vineyard”. This philosophy, which is based on nature and the moon, is the Alessandria family's top principle for their daily work.

    We recommend braised roast, lamb, game and mature hard cheese to accompany your meal.

    Das sagen die Weinexperten des Landes

    Jancis Robinson, Master of Wine:

    Brilliant ruby red. Rich strawberry fruit with a peppery tingle on the nose. Juicy red fruit with plenty of acidity and soft tannins. Very long and sweetly perfumed, while the acidity makes the whole thing seem slimmer and more elegant than it is.

    Rating: 16.5/20.00
