Barbera d'Alba
While Barbaresco and Barolo are for special occasions, Barbera is for famliy and fun. A violet red colour alludes to the sweet dark fruits, giving this wine a refined elegance. Powerful and rich on the nose, it is concentrated and smooth: rich and fruity while leaving room for hay, tobacco and spices. On the palate, black fruits are layered with mineral graphite notes. Match with grilled beef or pork, lamb dishes, lasagne, tomato pastas and pizza. It can also be paired with charcuterie, sausage and sausage dishes.
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.
