FRATELLI ALESSANDRIA GRAMOLERE BAROLO 2020 750ML

Picture yourself savoring a glass of this exquisite wine, as a harmonious blend of macerated cherries and savory roasted mushrooms dance on your palate. The umami-rich flavors intertwine with dried flowers and shaved rosewood, creating a sophisticated and alluring bouquet. This wine is a true embodiment of elegance, with a presence that effortlessly captivates your senses.

From vines planted in sandier soils in Monforte D'Alba at an elevation of 400 meters, the 2020 Barolo Gramolere is a bright ruby color and offers deeper aromatics in its generous notes of candied raspberries, ripe, sweet fresh herbs, candied flowers, and sappy, mossy earth. On the palate, it’s tight and tension-packed, with a bright, citrus-driven, pithy texture, hints of mint and balsamic, and a clean, tea leaf-noted finish.

With fruit from Monforte d'Alba, the Fratelli Alessandria 2020 Barolo Gramolere is slight and lean in terms of mouthfeel and has aromas of blackcurrant, crushed stone and grilled herb. This vintage is certainly shorter than previous years, although there is lots of nice freshness. The Gramolere is poised for a short to medium-term drinking window.

The 2020 Barolo Gramolere is laced with hints of dried cherry, menthol, spice, dried herbs and a whole range of balsamic inflections that add character. Like all the 2020s here, the Gramolere shows good vineyard character, but in a decidedly slender, light style relative to most years.
