2011 Fratelli Alessandria Barolo Monvigliero

The future is peeking out with an inner sweetness and lovely nose that bodes well. Red fruit with hints of goudron, tobacco and eucalyptus, all wrapped up in a savory, gracefully balanced and irresistible package. A complex, contemplative Barolo for Burgundy aficionados. Peaking in another 5 to 7 years.

Paired with grilled veal chops, tomato-cucumber salad with 10 year balsamic, and garlic-proscuitto mashed potatoes.
