G.D. Vajra Description
G.D. Vajra Albe Barolo 2019, is named for the three sunrises blessing the vineyards each day, this wine embodies Barolo tradition and Aldo Vaira's dedication to organic viticulture. A blend of high-altitude vineyards, it showcases the purity of Nebbiolo with its radiant color and enticing aromas.
The 2019 vintage, despite its challenges, yielded a wine of balance and finesse. Expect vibrant red berries, raspberries, and currants intermingling with sweet spices. The palate reveals refined tannins, lively energy, and a lingering, complex finish. Traditional aging in large oak preserves the wine's elegance and allows the vineyard's unique character to shine through
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
The 2019 Barolo Albe is a nuanced, understated wine, but it is also a rare Albe that needs time in bottle. Sweet floral and spice notes open first, leading to an attractive core of Nebbiolo fruit. Gentle and understated, with lovely precision, the 2019 Albe is a hushed wine that is more about energy than size. I have seen the Albe really blossom with a few years in bottle. I expect that will be the case here as well given its super-classic feel.
