"Porro’s 2004 Barolo Vigna Lazzairasco reveals greater depth, definition and richness in its aromas and flavors than the Santa Caterina. This deeply-layered Barolo possesses the hallmark Serralunga notes of tar, menthol, licorice and dark fruit. The wine’s concentration balances the firm tannins nicely. Though not a showstopper today, this wine has all of the ingredients to develop into a gem with bottle age."
