94-96 points Vinous Media

The 2021 Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno is a wine of translucence, elegance and finesse. Bright acids cut through a core of red/purplish fruit, chalk, slate, crushed rocks and white pepper. Rose petal, blood orange peel and mint resonate on the high-toned, intensely saline finish. San Lorenzo is often a potent Barolo, but in 2021, it comes across as especially finessed.

94 points Wine Advocate

This wine was introduced in 1997 and was the first single-vineyard expression from this MGA site. The Fratelli Alessandria 2021 Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno (with 5,000 bottles created) has a sweet side with nutmeg and tobacco, but it also presents a solid core of cherry fruit and blackcurrant. This nicely balanced expression has more accessible tannins for medium-term drinking.

The first vineyard that you come across along the road from Alba to Verduno. A hill very close to the River Tanaro, which plays a very important role in terms of microclimate. The vineyard enjoys southerly exposure and is located at an altitude of between 240 and 260 meters.
