Note di degustazione
Here is another beautiful wine from Fratelli Alessandria in the Verduno village. The 2013 Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno is slightly rounder and perhaps sweeter than the estate's other Barolo releases from this classic vintage. The wine shows texture and volume with dark layers of primary fruit, spice and grilled herb. This wine is poised for cellar aging and should flesh out further over the next few years.

The 2013 Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno is a big, powerful wine with huge tannins, broad shoulders and tons of overall intensity. Bold, dark flavors laced with expressive, balsamic overtones are some of the signatures. As always, the strapping, full-bodied San Lorenzo needs time to shed some of its youthful tannin, but it is impressive just the same. Moreover, San Lorenzo is one of the rare Verduno crus that emphasizes power over finesse, in the way one might say the same about Bonnes Mares in Chambolle-Musigny, for example.
