2021 G.D. Vajra Barolo D'Albe, Piedmont, Italy
$42.99
Nebbiolo from high-elevation sites (380–480 m) with exposures ranging from south-southeast to south-west. The fruit was hand-picked October 5–21, triple-sorted, and fermented with native yeasts in vertical tini; macerations ran 30–61 days with partial submerged-cap. Élevage was 24 months in large Slavonian casks (40–75 hL), with bottling in July 2024. The 2021 shows bright red cherry and rose with orange zest, gentle spice, and fine, silky tannins.
