Lazzarito 04

A winery steeped in history with a strong commercial force, the greatest in the entire Piedmont region. This is their most charismatic red. Made from nebbiolo grapes, aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, 50% new, then finished in 2,000 and 3,000 liter containers where it is then aged for another year before bottling.
The nose demonstrates a fine balance between the fruits and the wood, with the first prevailing alongside sensations created by the ageing process: blackberry, plum, forest, licorice, tobacco, pepper… very complex. The balance is reproduced in the mouth with utter elegance, a sober elegance followed by sweet, acidic and bitter moments with a tempered tannic quality.
