  Typical lovely barolo aromas. Roses, tar and some dried red fruit. Prefer to smell than drink this one. Medium body. Lacking some harmony there. Overall one of the best value barolos. Great to drink now and the next 5 years.

  Always a great blend of Cru’s with the signature strawberry note that Vajra’s Nebbiolos carry. Approachable tannins with pretty aromatics and great balance.

  Needs decanting - on day 1 rather muted, but on day 2 (stored at 5 degC) a nice elegant - medium body, acidity and tannins - Barolo with beautiful aromas. Nose very nice, and perhaps better than palate (which is still nice). Would buy again

  Not sure about this wine as it opened up very tart but seemed to smooth out and show some red fruits and acidity. Might wait for the last one to see if it turns into something.

  Interesting. It is a bit too tart, but has enough tannins to almost turn it around. Dark.
  Good with food, but not for sipping.
