Crissante Alessandria Barolo 'Galina' DOCG 2020
Vintage Character
Crissante Alessandria Barolo 'Galina' DOCG 2020 comes from the Barolo DOCG in La Morra, with fruit from the Gallina MGA, one of the commune’s most admired sites for fragrant, finely textured Nebbiolo. The 2020 vintage in Barolo is widely regarded as strong, combining a warm growing season with enough freshness to deliver ripe fruit, balanced structure, and early harmony without sacrificing site character. In La Morra, the area’s calcareous marl soils help shape a style that is typically more perfumed and supple than the firmer expressions found in some other Barolo villages.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
On the nose, this wine shows classic Nebbiolo lift with red cherry, raspberry, rose petal, violet, and hints of anise and sweet spice. The palate is full-bodied yet poised, with vivid acidity, fine-grained but persistent tannins, and a silky texture that carries flavors of wild strawberry, licorice, orange peel, and savory earth into a long, floral finish. Its aromatic elegance and structural tension make it a natural partner for veal shank, porcini risotto, or roast duck.
Winery Background
Crissante Alessandria is a small family estate in the Roggeri hamlet of La Morra, founded in 1958 and still focused on artisanal, site-driven wines. The family is known for careful vineyard work, hand-harvesting, and a measured approach that respects the identity of each cru. In the cellar, the style leans traditional, with fermentation geared toward clarity and structure, followed by aging in large oak to preserve Nebbiolo’s perfume and transparency rather than mask it with excessive wood. That combination of modest scale, cru specificity, and La Morra finesse makes 'Galina' especially compelling for drinkers who value precision over power.
