Description

Fratelli Alessandria Langhe Nebbiolo 'Prinsot' is a full-bodied and elegant red from Piedmont, made entirely from Nebbiolo grapes. This expressive wine offers aromas of red cherry, rose petals, and spice, with subtle earthy undertones. Aged for 10 months in large Slavonian oak casks, it achieves a harmonious balance of freshness, structure, and complexity. Refined yet approachable, it captures the soul of Nebbiolo in a more youthful and versatile form.

*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur. If you are after a specific vintage, please contact us prior to ordering.
