Pelaverga
You will hear us talk about Fratelli Alessandria often. They are quite simply one of the best wineries in Barolo, and all of their wines are worthwhile. Based in Verduno, the only place in the world where the spicy Pelaverga Picollo grape grows, the Alessandria family stays true to local tradition, making a lithe and distinctly aromatic red wine from this unique cultivar. Light and refreshing, you could serve it with a slight chill, and it will surely be versatile at the table. For pairings, you might consider grilled sausages and an arugula salad (no vinegar in the dressing please, try blood orange juice for acidity), or pasta with a spicy red sauce.
