The Story
Alessandria's friendly San Lorenzo Barolo, the estate's classic village bottling, from a great structured 2010 now well into maturity. This is the accessible heart of one of Piedmont's under-the-radar lineups, drawing on fruit from Verduno with the same satin elegance and lightness of touch that defines the cru wines. 2010 was a benchmark classic vintage, and after well over a decade the tannins have softened and the savory side has emerged. A traditional, transparent introduction to mature Alessandria Barolo at a fair price. Decant and enjoy.
