The Fratelli Alessandria winery is among the wine-growing excellences of the Langhe, a noble wine territory that the Alessandria family has been enhancing since 1870 through indigenous grape varieties such as Pelaverga, Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto, and Favorita. The Barbera ‘Priorà’, launched with the 2000 vintage, comes from a selection of grapes from particularly well-exposed vineyards located within the municipalities of Verduno and Monforte. The term in the Piedmontese dialect “\u003cem\u003epriorà\u003c\/em\u003e”, the name of this label, translates to “priorate”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFratelli Alessandria Barbera d’Alba Superiore ‘Priorà’ is a 100% Barbera from the Rocche dell’Olmo and Semolino vineyards, located in Verduno, and from the Gramolere parcel in Monforte.
