2020 Gianni Gagliardo Vigna Preve Lazzarito Barolo DOCG, Italy image

Vineyard exuberant for energy, positioned in a microclimate where everything is enhanced and highlighted. It is among the first to sprout and among the last to be harvested. It is a soil that must be ventilated and worked with delicacy, the response to green manure of brassicas and legumes is always excellent, practice to be carried out carefully and not throughout the vineyard because it tends to be a little vigorous despite the limestone. The mass selection of our Gagliardo clone was born from this vineyard.



In early years, Lazzarito is the vineyard with the most presence of vine cutworms, which we also controlled well in 2020 with manual night catch. The very rainy months of May and June were very positive for the vineyard. Thanks to its unique exposure, excellent ventilation is always guaranteed during the afternoon, a peculiarity that has maintained excellent plant health. Lazzarito in the 2020 vintage had particularly thick skins which guaranteed good health of the grapes until harvest.

Winemaker notes: Austere tart, grafite and struck match nose explode on the first nose of this renomated South-Ovest exposition vineyard, rounded by a bouquet of poppy seeds and carnation flowers. Figs, cherries and persimmon jam in an infusion of lavender, black musk and bergamot dive you in the sinuous and deep layered expression of Barolo. Linear rich and ripe firm tannins with a balsamic gentian, sweet raisin, gentle dried tobacco and fresh fern. In 2018 we’ve produced 2.474 bottles.
