2011 Fratelli Alessandria Barolo Gramolere

I've been raving about the '11 F. Alessandria Monvigliero,  but hold the phone - the '11 Gramolere is drinking as nicely if not better ! Have always enjoyed Manzone's interpretation of this high altitude Monforte site ... the F. Alessandria version is beautiful. .. would be interesting to find out if whole cluster comes into play...
I feel somewhat guilty enjoying a Barolo as young as this...like going against tradition. .
Anyway, the weather is sublime and I'm not on the road. The better half is visiting her sister this week.... Time to relax on the porch with my trusty hound and enjoy life  :)
