The fruity 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo Bricco Lago is a bright ruby red color and has a lovely spiced accent in its aromas of wild strawberries spice and sweet flowers. It?s medium-bodied and fresh with a chalky texture a light sanguine note through the palate and ripe tannins. Made with 30-40% whole berries and raised in cask it has a good deal of structure and freshness and is going to have a wide drinking window 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.
