2012 G.D. Vajra Barolo Ravera

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Tuesday, July 26, 2016 - Visit to G.D. Vajra with Francesca Vaira (Vergne, Barolo): From a vineyard, Francesca explained, in the amphitheatre just below Cogno's plot, with vines never less than 20 years age, some 40+ years and the rest 65+ years old. A step up here. A noticeably darker and darker spiced nose. More generosity and fruit volume on palate. Monforte weight. Spicy, not chalky tannins. Very good. This wine will need 4-7 years in the cellar, I'd think.
