Product Notes

G.D. Vajra Barolo Albe is a sublime red wine produced in the Piedmont region of Italy. Made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, which are handpicked and aged for 30 months in oak barrels, this wine captures the essence of the terroir and impeccable craftsmanship.

Deep garnet in color with hints of brick red, G.D. Vajra Barolo Albe offers a complex bouquet of dark cherry, tobacco, and violet, leading to a rich and structured palate with firm tannins and notes of blackcurrant, leather, and spice.

Perfectly balanced and full-bodied, this wine is a true reflection of the elegance and finesse of Barolo wines. Aged for 18 months in the bottle before release, it has a long finish and a great aging potential. G.D. Vajra Barolo Albe is an experience to savor and cherish, destined to become a classic among Italian wines.
