Description
According to Robert Parker, Fratelli Alessandria 2014 Barolo is a streamlined and elegant wine that imparts delicate tones of wile berry, spice, licorice, rosemary twig and candied orange peel. This is a classic expression and an absolute embodiment of Barolo tradition.
The palate is full-bodied with a firm structure, smooth and balanced tannins, accompanied by ripe fruit flavors and hints of oak. The finish is long and silky with lingering tones of smoke and crushed mineral. It is suitable for pairing with rich red meat dishes, grilled meats, and mature cheeses.
This wine has excellent aging potential and is recommended to be cellared under suitable conditions to further develop its complexity and elegance.
