Barolo DOCG Lazzarito Vietti 2015

The wine

This is a floral and aromatic wine with an enchanting bouquet. A delicious cuvée with a deep, red colour, and notes of fig and prune. On the palate it has exceptional power, bringing a gentle sweetness and a lingering finish that caresses the palate. Luca Currado and his wife Elena put their all into making this cuvée the signature of the Lazzarito terroir in Serralunga d’Alba. The vines are around 37 years old and are planted in clay-chalk soil exposed to the south-west. Once sorted, the crushed grapes ferment for 4 weeks in stainless steel vats before maturing in oak barrels.

About the Producer Vietti

In the Vietti family since the 19th century, four generations have successfully brought their estate to top of its game in Piedmont. Alfredo Currado's innovation has attracted fans from all over the world. While the trend of standardization of wines was peaking, the Vietti estate seized a golden opportunity to stand out from the crowd by offering very distinctive wines, single-parcel cuvées, and a white wine made from arnéis, an indigenous white grape that had fallen into obscurity.
Today, the Vietti estate is managed by Alfredo and Luciana Currado's son Luca and his wife Elena. They aim to further the Langhe and Alba terroirs to the best of their ability through meticulous and hard work.
Check out their beautiful wines, the Barbaresco or Barolo will do wonders after decanting or few years in your cellar.
