Barolo Albe Vajra 2019

HED24178 75cl 14%
G.D. Vajra, established in 1972, is a distinguished Italian wine producer nestled in Vergne, the highest village in Barolo. Albe represents a harmonious blend of exceptional vineyards in the Barolo DOCG region, situated at elevations ranging from 380 to 480 meters above sea level. The nose captivates with lovely notes of rose petals, violets, red berries, and fresh herbs. On the palate, it reveals a smooth and savoury character, boasting juicy red cherries, crushed raspberries, and hints of baking spices, all supported by refined tannins.
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. - Antonio Galloni - The 2019 Barolo Albe is a nuanced, understated wine, but it is also a rare Albe that needs time in bottle.
