Crafted with an unwavering dedication to excellence, the Barolo Lazzarito Riserva by Ettore Germano is a masterpiece, emanating from the revered Lazzarito vineyard situated in the heart of Serralunga d'Alba. Perched at elevations ranging from 320 to 360 meters, this vineyard thrives in a terroir enriched by a harmonious blend of limestone, marl, sand, and iron elements, with vines that have rooted deep into the earth since 1931. This wine is a celebration of the symbiotic relationship between the meticulous art of viticulture and the bounty of nature. The vineyard's advantageous south-southwest facing slopes bask in abundant sunlight, fostering the development of grapes that embody complexity and elegance in every sphere. Ettore Germano's rigorous vinification methodology, involving a discerning selection of hand-picked grapes, extended maceration periods, and aging in large Oak casks, culminates in a wine that gracefully balances power with finesse. This Barolo is a homage to the illustrious legacy of the Lazzarito vineyard, marrying age-old winemaking traditions with the innate vigor of the vines to forge a wine that stands as a paragon of elegance. In appearance, it boasts a deep garnet red hue, adorned with subtle light orange reflections—a testament to its meticulous aging process. The wine's aroma is a complex bouquet of small red berries intertwined with nuanced sweet spice and a hint of licorice, a direct reflection of the unique terroir's influence on the Nebbiolo grape, imparting unparalleled depth and aromatic intensity. Upon tasting, the wine envelops the palate with its smooth, velvety texture and a remarkable elegance that leads to a sweet, tannic aftertaste, persisting well beyond the initial sip. This enduring finish is a showcase of the wine's exemplary structure and equilibrium. The Barolo Lazzarito Riserva is ideally paired with hearty meats such as steak, which harmonizes with its robust nature, and aged cheeses that echo its complex flavor profile. Beyond the dining experience, it serves as a distinguished companion to post-dinner discourse, enriching the atmosphere with its noble character.
