Nebbiolo
Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✧✧✧

Barolo Lazzarito Vigna La Delizia shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of brick red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas which start with hints of cherry, violet and plum followed by aromas of raspberry, rose, tobacco, vanilla, mace, chocolate, licorice, cinnamon, white pepper and menthol. The mouth has excellent correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, agreeable roundness. The finish is very persistent with long flavors of cherry, plum and raspberry. A well made wine. Barolo Lazzarito Vigna La Delizia ages for 12 months in barrique followed by 12 months of aging in cask and 12 months of aging in bottle.
