Fratelli Alessandria Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno 2020

97 points Luca Gardini: "From the homonymous hill, adjacent to the Monvigliero cru, an impeccable work between the countryside and the winery culminates in a bottle of great complexity. Blueberry on the nose, notes of peony, hints of red orange and white pepper. Density on the palate, fruity return and a finish of persistence. (Apr 2024)"

95 points Kerin O'Keefe: "Showing depth and elegance the site is known for, the 2020 San Lorenzo di Verduno has multi-faceted scents of ripe red berry, underbrush, dog rose, leather and eucalyptus. Full-bodied and loaded with finesse, the delicious palate delivers ripe Morello cherry, wild raspberry, star anise and ground clove set against a backbone of refined tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced. Drink 2028–2035. Abv: 14.5% (Mar 2024)"

94 points Audrey Frick (JebDunnuck.com): "Pouring a jeweled ruby color, the 2020 Barolo San Lorenzo Di Verduno is a bit more reserved on opening, with notes of fresh red cherries, then takes a darker mineral tone aromatically, with a hint of black truffle, fresh crushed flowers, and fresh earth. The palate reveals more depth and richness while being light on its feet, with sweet tannins, more sapidity, a mouthwatering mineral tone, and a delicate glycerol richness. It has an approachable feel and is going to have a wide drinking window over the next 10-15 years. Drink: 2024-2039. (5/13/24)"
