Monvigliero is arguably the most important cru of Verduno and Fratelli Alessandria has some of the biggest holdings there, 1.4ha.  Harvest on October 7th, macerations 32 days. Monvigliero exalts the beguiling florality and spice that are Verduno's calling card.  First produced in 1978. 7,000 bottles made.

"The 2021 Barolo Monvigliero is one of the best wines I have tasted from Fratelli Alessandria in some time. The aromatics alone are haunting in their beauty.  Rose petal, tangerine peel, cinnamon, kirsch, pomegranate and mint explode from the glass.  Beams of supporting tannin give the wine its vertical build.  This is such a promising Barolo.  It could very well turn out to be one of the wines of the vintage." - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, January 2025
