Monvigliero, Verduno's most prestigious cru, in the utterly classic 2012 vintage that Flatiron has always loved for sheer drinkability. The 2012s are early drinkers not because they're flashy but because they're so balanced, with fine acidities and poised fruit you simply want to pour now. Alessandria is one of the two great references for this perfumed hillside alongside Burlotto, working traditionally and transparent to site. A dozen-plus years on, this is mature, elegant Barolo at its satiny, lifted best. You can keep it, but it's giving real pleasure today.
