 | | Lorenzo "Renzo" Alutto |
The sudden appearance of Lorenzo Alutto is an almost magical occurrence for lovers of traditional Piemontese wines. The wines are top top quality across the board, and the prices are too good to be true.
"Renzo Alutto is a story in himself. If I know one thing from 30 years in wine, it is that there is only one Renzo Alutto. He is a very special character - young, passionate, dynamic (hyperactive would be a much better way of putting it), boisterous, scatterbrained, and funny as hell.
It is said that great wines personify the people who make them. Renzo Alutto is natural, unassuming, unpretentious, easygoing, upfront, open, and very generous. He is full of passion. He is friendly, outgoing, amiable but not in any way frivolous. He is serious and much more complex than you think, which only makes him all the more charming.
The wines of Renzo Alutto, ditto."
