Lazzarito in 2020 leans into a darker, more brooding expression of Barolo, with compact layers of forest berries, blood orange peel, menthol and licorice wrapped around a core of stony, earthy depth. Vietti’s Barolo Lazzarito 2020 is full-bodied and firmly structured, its chewy tannins giving a severe, upright feel today, but the finish is long, sapid and spicy, suggesting impressive detail once the edges soften. This is a serious, somewhat austere vintage that will reward patience more than instant gratification.

Vietti’s Barolo Lazzarito is a single‑vineyard Barolo from the amphitheatre‑shaped Lazzarito cru in Serralunga d’Alba—100% Nebbiolo grown on calcareous‑clay soils with south‑west exposure and relatively old Guyot‑trained vines. It’s built for structure and age, showing intense ruby to garnet color, incisive Serralunga tannins and mineral austerity tempered by balsamic and wild‑herb aromas (mint, sage, white pepper) and a persistent, taut finish.
