Verduno plays an important role in Barolo as it was once the epicenter for the region and credited with creating the first dry Nebbiolo wines that we know today. Its unofficial slogan as “the king of wines, and the wine of kings” was born out of the preference for these Verduno wines among the reigning monarchies. The Alessandria’s have deep roots in the region dating back to this monarchic mid-19th century era. It seems Verduno has been reclaiming its past glory with each vintage.
Notes from the producer:
"In this version, aged in steel and concrete, all the fruit and fragrance of the Barbera grape emerge to perfection. It expresses all the youthful energy and vitality of this great traditional Piedmontese wine."
