Persoonlijke gegevens
This wine is an excellent example of Nebiollo made from younger vines, aged 10-25 years, and exhibits purity of fruit characteristics. The vineyards are spread throughout the region and therefore experience varying climatic conditions, resulting in the grapes being harvested at different times. This diverse range of locations and harvest times gives the wine an unmistakable complexity. Fermentation for each plot is carried out separately, and the wine is aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve varietal purity. The percentage of the plot aged in neutral oak varies from vintage to vintage—for the most part, it is usually a small amount.
The nose of the Vajra Langhe Nebbiolo is vibrant and bursting with aromas of rosebuds, violets, dark fruit, and mint. On the palate, these notes translate and are accompanied by earthy, mineral notes. A wine that can be enjoyed now and has the potential to age well.

Aldo Vajra has always been a bit of a rebel. And for good reason, because this trait has led to this beautiful winery and its authentic wines. Vajra's vineyards are located northwest of Barolo and have been organically farmed from the start. The high altitude of the vineyards (the Bricco delle Viole is among the highest vineyards in Piedmont) creates a large temperature difference between day and night. The grapes ripen slowly and fully, giving the wines a wonderful finesse and elegance. The relatively cool climate in this area has led many winemakers to harvest the Dolcetto grape, as this grape needs warmth to fully develop. But the Vajra family still produces beautiful rosé and red wines from this grape. Read more under the tab: Winery

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | De 2024 G.D. Vajra Langhe Nebbiolo is een elegante wijn die je betovert met frisse aroma’s van rozenknoppen, viooltjes, donker fruit en een hint munt. In de mond komt deze fruitigheid tot leven, aangevuld met aardse minerale tonen die zorgen voor een mooie complexiteit en finesse. Deze wijn past perfect bij rijke gerechten zoals sappig rundvlees, gevogelte en wild, vooral wanneer deze bereid zijn met subtiele kruiden en lichte sautértechnieken. Een fijne combinatie ontstaat bijvoorbeeld bij geroosterd vlees met zachte saus of wildgerechten met een fruitige touch, waardoor de wijn zijn frisse en aardse karakter mooi kan laten uitkomen. |

2022 G.D. Vajra Langhe Nebbiolo
RP 91
Drink Date: 2024 - 2027
The G.D. Vajra 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo has so much bright freshness and primary intensity. This is a lovely entry-level wine and one that I warmly recommend to lovers of Nebbiolo who are also conscious of price. The wine sings from the glass with violet, sour cherry, raspberry, bitter almond and rose hip. There is a very ruby-colored, almost grenadine-like quality as well. I could see this pairing with a fatty food like a classic pasta carbonara. I'm ready for a second glass.

Situated in the renowned Barolo appellation, this enchanting estate has been crafting exceptional wines for generations, capturing the essence of the land and the profound stories that shaped their journey.
The cornerstone of G.D. Vajra's wine making philosophy lies in the concept of terroir.

The Vajra family to this day remain steadfast in their commitment to sustainable practices, seeking to preserve the natural biodiversity of their vineyards for generations to come.
The Vajra family's winemaking journey is a testament to their unwavering love for their heritage. With a blend of tradition and innovation, they have honed their craft over the years, producing wines that carry the spirit of their ancestors. Whether it's the iconic Barolo, the elegant Dolcetto, or the vibrant Barbera, each bottle is a reflection of the Vajra family's deep-rooted passion and dedication.
