Fratelli Alessandria is a family-owned winery located in the town of Verduno in the Piedmont region of Italy. One of their signature wines is made from the Pelaverga grape variety, which is grown exclusively in the Verduno area.
The Alessandria expression is bright and high toned with purple and red fruits and a herbaceous note. Lower on the tannin than other Piemonte varietals it still has excellent acidity and can handle a slight chill surprisingly well.
