Berrys’ Barolo has arrived! Vittore Alessandria introduces a key ingredient: his Campasso vineyard…

I am pleased to say that Berrys’ Barolo, the 2008 vintage as made by the historic cantina Fratelli Alessandria, is now for sale on our website!

A traditional yet ripe expression of Italy’s fine Nebbiolo wine, Berrys’ Barolo 2008 is a blend of two Verduno vineyards: Rocche dell’Olmo and Campasso, aged in large slavonian oak barrels (botte) for elegance. I chose Fratelli Alessandria for their experience as a leading Barolo producer; that of Verduno because Nebbiolo (Barolo) from this vineyard naturally has a soft, beguiling charm. A wine that can be enjoyed now but will develop further over the next decade.
