Best after 2000

The Lazzarito is still the Barolo that spends the longest number of months in French oak following the malolactic fermentation

comparing it to the 2017 it does not quite have the same tension and mineralité

The precise and almost lilting middleweight flavors possess a lovely sense of tension while displaying fine length on the youthfully austere and balanced finale

cool and wonderfully pure mineral-driven middle weight flavors

Pauillac De Latour other_regions Best after 2000Leather, liquorice, blackcurrant dense but not massive expressiveness, and very conventional. Still good, but slightly underwhelming considering the provenance. (RH)
