G.D. Vajra

G.D. Vajra is a small, artisanal family estate that has risen to become one of the benchmark modern day producers in Piedmont. The estate is steeped in tradition: Barolos are macerated for 20 to 30 days, depending on the vintage, and matured in large neutral Slavonian casks. The holdings in Bricco delle Viole ‒ Barolo’s highest cru ‒ are the prized vineyards of the estate, planted in 1949. High elevation vineyards are a unique factor to Vajra wines, allowing them to express what has become the hallmark of the estate: finesse and remarkable complexity over simple power.
