"the alessandria family has been producing for many years the red wine barolo du cru san giovanni, located in the municipality of monforte d'alba. on the east side of the vineyard, gianfranco has rented nearly 2 hectares of vines for the long term. the grapes are set up manually in october as part of the normal growth pattern of the grapes. for fermentation, the grapes are delivered in special stainless steel fermentation tanks and also the 2. fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. the wine is then matured in barrels of french barrels, partly new and partly used, and lasts 24 months. the final stage is then the maturation of the bottles before the gianfranco alessandria barolo 2017 docg is put on sale. the result is a high quality barolo with dark and balsamic aromas, body and concentration in the mouth with strong tannins, balance and complexity. this barolo is a good companion for roast, game and red meat. with pasta with truffles, as well as with ripe cheese."
