Lidl Brings The Authentic Taste Of Piedmont To U.S. Stores With New 'King Of Wines' Barolo DOCG Riserva 2012 For Less Than $20

ARLINGTON, Va., July 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Starting July 24, Lidl is set to debut the 'King of Wines:' its private label Barolo DOCG Riserva 2012 available for just $13.99, with Lidl's limited-time mix and match case deal. Wine enthusiasts and savvy shoppers alike can stock up and save on Lidl's unique Italian wines with a 30 percent off mix and match bottles when purchasing 6 or more.

Lidl is the only U.S. grocery store to have a dedicated Master of Wine, the most prestigious title in the world of wine. Adam Lapierre, who has tasted more than 12,000 wines to curate Lidl's unique range, notes, "Barolo Riserva regularly fetches prices of $150 or more, so Lidl's limited-time promotion offers incredible savings. I'd recommend stocking up on a few bottles and opening one every six months to get a true sense of the wine's evolution."

Barolos come from the Nebbiolo grape variety, which is known to be pale in color and high in tannin and alcohol. Hailing from the famous wine making region of Piedmont, Northern Italy, Barolo must be aged for five years according to Italian law, making it a very age-worthy wine. Often wine drinkers tend to move towards crisp whites and sweet rosés in the summer months, but Lapierre challenges that notion and recommends maintaining Lidl's Barolo Riserva at 65 degrees and serving it with grilled meats with garlic or herb flavors – a combination that is sure to transport shoppers to the sundrenched rolling hills of the Piedmont this summer.

In addition to a selection of high-quality Italian wines, Lidl will introduce 40+ imported Italian delicacies to U.S. stores. Stand-outs include a new Tomato-Mozzarella Bratwurst ($3.99), a creative twist on traditional Italian spumoni ($1.99) and a deliciously decadent Burrata Pizza ($3.49). According to Lapierre, the Tomato-Mozzarella Bratwurst is a great for pairing with the Barolo Riserva, resulting in two perfect Italian additions to any summer BBQ.
