The Barolo DOCG Monvigliero 2018 by Alessandria Fratelli is a wine that embodies the authenticity and elegance of the Piedmontese lands. Coming from one of the most prestigious crus of Barolo, Monvigliero stands out for its unique character and expressive power. The hand-picked Nebbiolo grapes result from careful selection and benefit from a favorable exposure, allowing for perfect ripening.
In the glass, this Barolo presents a deep ruby red color, with garnet reflections that hint at a surprising complexity. On the nose, a rich and enveloping bouquet unfolds slowly: notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, intertwine with earthy undertones and delicate spices, while floral nuances of rose and violet emerge. With time in the bottle, strokes of tobacco and leather come forward, bearing witness to its length and aromatic depth.
On the palate, the Monvigliero 2018 is structured and powerful, yet surprisingly balanced; the tannins are present and well-integrated, providing a velvety texture that speaks of aristocracy. The freshness of the acidity is refreshing, offering a savory and persistent finish that invites further tasting experiences. To enhance its complexity, this Barolo pairs beautifully with rich dishes like braised Barolo, aged cheeses, or porcini mushroom risotto. In every sip, the Monvigliero 2018 by Alessandria Fratelli tells a story of passion, tradition, and terroir, making every tasting occasion a memorable moment.
