Vietti Barolo Lazzarito 2009
Item Code: IL1-2078I09B
Wine Advocate 95+: "Luca recently purchased more land in the Lazzarito cru. The 2009 Barolo Lazzarito delivers subdued notes of red rose and violet that build in intensity as the wine takes on more air in the glass. Black fruit, plum, cassis, leather, tar and licorice soon follow suit. This wine is an absolute, drop-dead stunner. Its tannic crispness makes it feel lively and buoyant in the mouth. The wine shows heft and importance that become firmly etched in the mouth. Each time I went back to the glass, the wine told a new story. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2035."
Wine Spectator 93: "Effusive aromas of bilberry, cherry and raspberry pick up soy and eucalyptus flavors as this dense, sturdy red unfolds on the palate. Tight and structured, leaving a mouthwatering impression of sweet fruit on the finish. Best from 2016 through 2030. 536 cases made."
James Suckling 94: "A beautiful core of blueberry and strawberry fruit in this wine -- structured yet very fine. It's full-bodied, with polished and fine tannins and a long, long finish. Lots of subtle mineral and milk chocolate character here. Difficult to decide whether I prefer this, or the 2008. Try in 2015."
