Baroli from Serralunga d'Alba are often in a category of their own thanks to their richness and sheer abundance of fruit and simultaneous austerity. Initially restrained red fruit on the nose, dense and very concentrated on the palate. Lazzarito 2021 impresses with its powerful but ripe tannins, typical of Serralunga. This assertive and still very youthful wine is very long-lived and has an impressive drive on the impressively long finish. Let's give it the time it needs and it will delight us completely. SUPERIORE.DE

"Powerful, bright ruby colour with a fine garnet sheen. Opens with notes of rose petals and wild raspberries, with some fresh leather in the background. Compact at the front, clear fruit, then opens up with powerful tannins, unfortunately somewhat drying on the final, with a cranberry aftertaste." Falstaff

"The Barolo Lazzarito 2021 is a powerful, deep wine. It is not surprising that it is quite closed at first. Nevertheless, all the natural power and intensity of Serralunga is very much in evidence. It is the most backward and tannic of today's Barolos. But that's just Serralunga. There are hints of gravel, incense and charcoal on the finish." Vinous

"A graceful and enticing wine with complex, assertive cinnamon, melon, watermelon, earth, strawberry and peony flavours on the nose. This is a wine that breathes, with a full body, great fruit concentration, restrained blood orange flavours, lush, elegant tannins and long, lifted acidity. The finish is a little austere, as you would expect from a young Barolo. Best after 2028." James Suckling

"The fruit for this wine comes from a three-hectare plot in Serralunga d'Alba near the village, with south and south-west exposure in a small amphitheatre. The soils in this area are older and therefore more developed, but they always produce wines with a strong character. The 2021 Barolo Lazzarito is easily recognisable thanks to its salty, mineral, almost metallic finish and its bright notes of sweet rosemary and wild herbs. These delicate notes form a pretty frame for a dark core of elegant fruit." Wine Advocate

"This red wine is expressive and complex, offering aromas and flavours of cherries, strawberries, plums, cut hay, green tea and iron. Well-structured and balanced, with a lively feel and a delightfully long finish that reflects the fruit and savoury elements. Captivating." Wine Spectator
