Barolo DOCG Lazzarito 2018 Mirafiore

Barolo DOCG Lazzarito 2018 from Mirafiore is a red wine from the Lazzarito cru in Serralunga d'Alba. The grapes ferment in stainless steel, then age for 24 months in oak barrels and in bottle before release. It is a single-varietal Nebbiolo, with refined aromas and a palate that does not tire. It suits meat dishes, game and aged cheeses, and is worth trying with truffle-based first courses. In the glass it is a deep, bright red. The nose shows mature fruit, tobacco, liquorice, leather, dried plum and aromatic herbs, with balsamic hints in the background. The palate is balanced, with sweet tannins well integrated into a long fruity texture.
