Barolo Lazzarito DOCG 2020 (BIO)

Vietti | Piedmont
Vietti s.r.l. | Piazza Vittorio Veneto 5 | IT 12060 Castiglione Falletto

Baroli from Serralunga d'Alba are often in a category of their own thanks to their richness and sheer abundance of fruit. Lazzarito stands on an impressive base of robust fruit and power, rising in intensity thanks to its wonderfully elevated bouquet. It shows direct and solid lines with blackberries, plums, spices, tar, liquorice, candied orange peel and truffle-infused earth. A second wave of flavours offers dark minerals, iron ore and rust. With additional aeration, it delivers mint and fine balsamic herbs and will fully delight with further bottle ageing. SUPERIORE.DE

"Finely chiselled yet powerful nose of raspberries, spices and dried flowers, enveloped in balsamic nuances; engaging acidity and wonderfully modelled tannins, long, fresh and fruity yet extremely elegant. A great wine." Vinum

"Powerful ruby colour with a clear garnet hue. Impressive nose with rich notes of rose petals, wild raspberries and some liquorice. Fine-meshed tannins, opens up in many layers, notes of cranberries and blood orange, very good tension." Falstaff

"Starts with an open feel, displaying cherry, peach, iron, tar and tobacco flavors before firming up. This lively red builds to the long aftertaste of red licorice, tobacco and earth." Wine Spectator

"Tar and dark minerality. Lots of wild berries, dried orange peel, frozen grapefruit and raspberries. Very structured and full-bodied, with firm, chewy tannins that give the wine a bold, austere quality. But in the end it is concentrated and taut, with a crisp, savoury finish full of length." James Suckling

"The Lazzarito stands out as one of the strongest wines in this portfolio of new releases from Vietti. With fruit from Serralunga d'Alba, the 2020 Barolo Lazzarito achieves a very high level of complexity, offering dark cherry, crème de cassis, violet macaron, dried herbs and lavender. The aromas of the wine remind me of the south of France in summer. It shows elegant tannins, a lean intensity and good acidity." Wine Advocate
