Fratelli Alessandria Description
96 pts Kerin O'Keefe
"Another fantastic showing from Fratelli Alessandria, the 2021 Gramolere, an MGA in Monforte, has enticing aromas of wild rose, spice, camphor and plumcake. Smooth and delicious, the enveloping palate offers up crushed raspberry strawberry compote, licorice and mentholated notes alongside firm, velvety tannins. It's well balanced, with fresh acidity and boasts an almost weightless concentration." KO

"Moving over to Monforte d'Alba, the 2021 Barolo Gramolere was harvested almost a week after the vineyards in Verduno and takes on a bit more pigment in its medium red color. An expressive wine, it has a stylistic, graceful feel but offers more sapidity, lifting with notes of cherry liqueur, pressed herbs, sweet leather, and intertwining floral components. Over the long term, this is going to become a bit more contemplative in the range and offers a very complete feel at this early stage. The palate has velvety tannins, refreshing, balanced acidity, and an exceptional finish with darker mineral accents. I have to say, this might be my favorite from this producer in this vintage, and I would love to have several bottles stashed away to check in over the years. Bravo. Drink 2026-2056."
Wine Advocate: 96+ Points
"From a vineyard site in Monforte d'Alba, the Fratelli Alessandria 2021 Barolo Gramolere (with 7,000 bottles produced) shows a little more structure and power with tightly knit fruit, dark plum, ferrous earth and licorice. This vineyard comes to family ownership via the matriarch, Flavia Manzone, who was born in this village. Polished tannins push a smooth-sailing mouthfeel."
