2021

Fratelli Alessandria has made this Barolo "normale" since 1880!  Starting with the 2017 vintage it took on the name Barolo del comune di Verduno.  From 4ha of Verduno crus: Pisapola, Campasso, Riva Rocca (this site is the heart of the wine in 2021) , Boscatto, Rocche dell’Olmo, exposures from South to East.  Harvest in 2021 was between September 30th and October 9th.  Fermentation in stainless w/ macerations of 27-29 days. 20,000 bottles made.

"....the 2021 Barolo Del Comune Di Verduno is very pretty on the nose, with a good deal of complexity and purity lifting from the glass with aromas of fresh raspberries, strawberry, fresh spices, fennel, incense, and roses. The palate is focused and energetic, with bright acidity, finely coiled tannins, a salty, mouthwatering feel, and a light, savory finish. It is both tension-packed and has the finesse of Verduno throughout this Comune bottling." - Audrey Frick, Jeb Dunnuck, May 2025
