Vietti Barolo Lazzarito 2020 [NET]

$25999

From the producer: intense ruby-red color with garnet hues. The nose is alluring and profound. Balsamic notes, sage, eucalyptus, white pepper and wild mint emerge. On the palate, it is full-bodied, with a taut, mineral finish. As is typical of Serralunga, the tannins are stark, sharp and very profound. The sweet persistence of the finish is delightful.

"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 comes in at a very high threshold in terms of complexity, offering dark cherry, crème de cassis, violet macaron, dried herb and lavender. The wine's perfumes remind me of the south of France in summer. It shows elegant tannins, streamlined intensity and good acidity." —Robert Parker

"Hailing from the esteemed Lazzarito cru in Serralunga d’Alba, this Barolo draws you in with its warm, spice-laden bouquet and alluring dark fruit aromas. Lifted and inviting from the start, the palate is plump and juicy, featuring a delightful interplay of tart plum flavors and elegant"

More about Vietti

One of the great names from Barolo, Vietti has been a pioneering force in Piedmont for decades, going back to the 1961 Rocche, one of the first single-vineyard designated bottles ever. The Rocche, and other single Cru wines from outside Castiglione, are among the most sought-after Barolo being made today.

Vietti also makes a Barolo normale called Castiglione, which confusingly is made mostly with fruit from Ravera, in the village of Novello, rather than Castiglione. It’s a good wine to stock up on just about every vintage. The style at Vietti is neither particularly traditional or particularly modern: a down-the-middle approach that is focused primarily on quality and terroir expression.
