"Honeyed mirabelle plum and toasted filbert aromas make a fetching pair. Lemon shaved ice and fresh basil flavors are equally refreshing. Decent acidity, with some midpalate weight. -MA"

Dark, brilliant ruby. Pungent black raspberry and cherry aromas are complemented by floral, olive and baking spice nuances. Smooth and expansive on the palate, offering spice-tinged red and blue fruit preserve, licorice and allspice flavors that show fine delineation and mineral lift. Juicy and subtly chewy in texture, finishing with resonating blue fruit and spice character; tannins slowly emerge.

From the southern part of the appellation and brought up all in used oak, the 2019 Saint Joseph is another ripe, sunny, textured beauty. Red and black fruits, ground pepper, and spice as well as medium-bodied richness and sweet tannins all make for a terrific Saint-Joseph. It will keep for a decade as well.

Meyer lemon peel, poached apricot and pastry cream notes are tightly meshed with a minerally underpinning and racy acidity in this vivacious Champagne. Creamy finish.

90 Wine & Spirits

This wine updates an old-fashioned grand-marque style of Champagne with a bright, spicy approach. Its meaty, sweet umami notes bring to mind morels, while cool, zesty acidity keeps it clean and savory. Chill it down for aperitifs.

With crisp acidity and layers of apple and citrus fruits, this attractive wine still has some of the higher dosage typical of this house. Together the fruits and the soft texture have produced a wine that is ready to drink.

"Fruit-driven aromas of dark cherries, blackberries, licorice and chocolate. The palate is full-bodied with firm tannins and balanced acidity. Robust yet generous. Drink or hold." - Ryan Montgomery

Made with 65-year-old vines, the oldest in the entire Lazzarito cru, the compelling Guido Porro 2021 Lazzairasco boasts intense aromas of rose, forest floor, menthol and woodland berry. Always the most austere of the estate's Barolos, the focused, firmly structured palate has great precision, delivering red cherry, raspberry, licorice, orange peel and mentholated notes alongside a backbone of firm, fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it energized and balanced. Drink 2031-2046.

If you can’t get your hands on Guido Porro’s exceptional Vignarionda (or even if you can) the Vigna Lazzairasco is a rewarding and affordable sidestep. It is also produced in more ample quantities – 10,000 bottles. Direct and precise but still very young and austere, it suggests bay leaf, fennel and mint blossom. Blood and iron course through the dark, red berry core. Tannins are steely but well padded. They stretch out and give proper bite. Spicy on the finish, this definitely needs more time.

Textured, balanced and attractive with aromas of spiced apples, dried plums and baking spices. Medium-bodied with plenty of texture and fresh acidity adding drive to the long, vibrant and flavorful finish. Drink or hold.
