G. D. Vajra – Albe 2016 – Barolo

The nose is powerful, spicy and offers a fine grain and intensity. It reveals notes of wild strawberry, small wild fruits, small notes of violet associated with a hint of lily as well as fine hints of tonka bean, sense of the place and discreet hints of grey pepper. The palate is fruity and offers gourmandize, a beautiful definition, a good structure and a fine fat. On the palate this wine expresses notes of wild strawberry, small wild red berries/fleshy redcurrant, small notes of violet associated with a hint of lily, plum as well as fine hints of tonka bean, toasted hazelnut and discreet hints of sweet spices. Tannins are fin, elegant and precise. Good length.
