Lalu' - Dolcetto d'Alba produced in 2006 bottles in the single Loreto vineyard located in La Morra, aged in both steel and wood tanks.

Lalu’ – Dolcetto d’Alba – 2021

A Dolcetto that must be tried, limited quantities of 1,200 bottles per year, a pleasant daily wine that is non-trivial but resourceful. The grapes come from the Loreto vineyard located in La Morra, a vineyard that in a few years will make way for new rows of Nebbiolo because of the excellent exposure where it is located. The fermentations take place in steel tanks in a spontaneous manner of which one part is whole berry, then the wine ages for a few months in both steel and wood. Fantastic fruit and spice on the nose, very fine and rich with a fresh and thoughtful drink in its components.

Description

Lara and Luisa are two true winelovers who after meeting at university embarked on a dream, which is to produce their own wine. Without any farming roots but with great desire and boldness they founded their winery Lalù in 2019 in Serralunga d’Alba, after having had numerous experiences both in the Langa at various wineries and abroad such as in Burgundy, Argentina and South Africa. The first nebbiolo vines were planted in 2015 in la Morra and Monforte d’Alba, and as of today they own 3.5 hectares where there is great love and reverence for the land while respecting nature’s timing in an organic context that preserves the health of things. Their vision lies in interpreting the vintage by following each harvest as sensitively and carefully as possible so that in the winery during vinification the raw material is not altered. Two girls who represent a new generation of women winemakers who have accepted the challenge of winemaking with determination by increasingly breaking through this taboo. A result derived from an inverted path, compared to the past, started this time from the city to the countryside, retracing the footsteps of those who were, in search of pure Piedmontese wine expression.
