Description
Still red Barolo DOCG Lazzarito Riserva, 14% ABV, produced by Ettore Germano, a historic Piedmontese winery since 1856. Vintage 2018. A Barolo Riserva born from the passion of four generations for the vineyard. The aromas of small red fruits blend with hints of sweet spice and licorice, creating a complex and enveloping bouquet. On the palate, the entry is very fine and elegant, but with a good, sweet, and long tannic finish. Aged in 2,000-liter oak barrels for approximately 24 to 36 months.
