Gianfranco Alessandria

Gianfranco Alessandria, one of Piedmont's small, artisan growers, has turned out two beautiful Barolos in 2005. Alessandria gave his wines a slightly shorter period of contact on the skins and lowered temperatures during fermentation in order to exalt the wines' aromatics. As oak levels have come down the fruit has becoming more expressive and the wines are finding a place for themselves among the region's finest bottlings. In one of my blind tastings of the 2005 Barolos the San Giovanni fared exceptionally well.
