"Fruit for the Fratelli Alessandria 2021 Barolo del Comune di Verduno comes from five vineyard sites in Verduno: Riva Rocca, Rocche dell’Olmo, Campasso, Pisapola and Boscato. This was the first Barolo del Comune di Verduno to hit the market (with the 2017 vintage). The bouquet focuses on redcurrant and tart cherry, and there is a pinch of cinnamon buried in there as well. This is a pretty Barolo that manages elegance and an easy-drinking style. This 20,000-bottle release ages in Slavonian and French oak botti for three years. Drink 2026-2040." - 94 points, Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate
"Verduno. Lustrous mid ruby. Intense, deep and multi-layered cherry on the nose. Tightly knit fruit and fantastic chewy tannins on the palate. Great balance but the firm structure demands more time while the fruit is still curled up. Lots of potential." - 17++/20, Jancis Robinson
