Barolo Gramolere

Italy
Piedmont
2020

The cru of Gramolere, located in Monforte d’Alba, is Fratelli Alessandria’s lone plot outside of Verduno. They own 2ha here. The wine is made exactly as the other two single-cru wines.  As it’s on the older Arenarie di Diano D’Alba soils, high in sand, and the altitude is higher, this wine tends to feel more lithe and tense than its Verduno counterparts.  First made in 2001. 7,000 bottles made.

"“Beautiful nose here, with spiced cherries, raspberry bush, fine cedar, cloves and dried rose hips on offer. Minerals, too. So refined and delicious with polished tannins. Medium body. Very well made and already very attractive, but better after 2026.”"
