A pioneer of the great Barolos of the modern era and an accomplished stylist, Aldo Vajra has a particular predilection for dolcetto, whose charm he knows how to express marvellously: the aromas of stone fruit and the slightly balsamic spicy notes are superb. The palate is a model of Piedmontese expression, with a ripe grain, wonderfully sapid, very tactile. A great pleasure! Wine Advocate: 91/100; Vinous: 90/100

Technique

Viticulture

Origin of the terroirs used in this cuvée: Barolo commune (Coste di Vergne, Fossati, Pascolo crus) and Novello commune (Ravera crus). Guyot pruning, natural grassing, green harvesting if necessary.

Oenology

Vinification for 10 days using indigenous yeasts, natural malolactic fermentation, maturing in vats until April following the harvest in order to preserve the purity, fruit and delicacy.
