Vigna la Delizia Lazzarito Barolo Nebbiolo

Thank goodness there are wines like this on the planet....

Took no notes from November 2017 but I recall it being enjoyable.

Still had quite some alcohol and tannins left. Classic Barolo nose cigars, with dried flowers and some confit of fruit kind of something. Opened it and decanted, waited 2 hours. Still very closed so decided to wait for the next day. Happy with this decision it was beautiful since the tannines loosened up and alcohol became less prominent

Light cherry, dried rose petals, leather, hint of tobacco, soft on the palate with tannins that build to show power and acidity to balance.

No signs of age. Has another 10-15 years. Amazing.

Glorious! All the classic Barolo traits, autumn leaves, rose leaves, leather. Very expressive. Superb balance, with pleasant acidity, soft tannins, long finish. At its peak.

Dedanted and drinking tomorrow.

Fantastic earthy and more masculine

Here's a free lesson for you - the three fundamental things you look for in a vintage Barolo are curry powder, gun powder, and baby powder. This '98 vintage is a testament to why more producers should go back to the fundamentals. What makes this wine particularly unique is the producers ability to include MDMA without altering the mouthfeel. Excellent to pair with an overly cooked Trump steak showered in ketchup and lies.

This wine wins the award for thickest, most heaviest bottle ever! Might do some curls with it. The uniqueness and amazement end after that. One more old bottle removed from the cellar!
