Guido Porro, Barolo Lazzairasco 2022

Why we love this bottle

Guido Porro is the fourth generation of his family in Serralunga d'Alba, one of the most famous villages for Barolo. His son Fabio now works with him. We love it because it is Barolo made the way it used to be.

Lazzairasco is his favourite vineyard, two hectares on a steep slope, shaped like a small amphitheatre on one of the warmest spots of Serralunga. The wine ages three years in large old wooden casks. Nothing new or modern, just like his father and grandfather did it. Raspberry, liquorice and a hint of orange peel. Powerful, but surprisingly soft. Take your time, it changes with every sip.
