A bright magenta ruby color the 2022 Dolcetto D?Alba Bricco Lago is fruity and spicy with lifted aromas of crunchy mixed berries and fruit candied flowers and a nice lift of spice. Like the 2023 that was tasted from barrel this vintage also takes a page from the style book of cru Beaujolais and is bright and crunchy with ripe tannins a rocky texture and a lot of crunchy fruit. Drink it over the next several years. The latest high-profile winery to land in Barolo hails from the top of Lazzarito in Serralunga d?Alba. Elena Penna Luca Currado and their children have staked claim to their new home with this year?s inaugural releases having departed their historic family estate at Vietti last year. All of the wines for this report were tasted at the estate with Elena and Luca in March of 2024. While readers will start to see a few wines in the market this year this is merely the beginning as they have clearly been hard at work to grow steadily and confidently in the years to come with most of the wines here tasted from barrel.
