G.D. Vajra – Barbera Superiore Viola delle Viole – 2020

A sensational grape variety in every sense, it represents a part of Piedmontese history, the most widely planted variety in the region from which Vajra makes a wine of great strength. The vineyards are located in two crus within the Barolo area, Bricco delle Viole and Bricco Bertone, where the sandy soils combined with good exposure enhance the sensory and taste characteristics of this blend. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks together with maceration in contact with the skins for 35 days. Refinement is carried out in oak casks for 22 months. This superior Barbera is not lacking in power and body, it is alluring already in its heady aromas of red fruit but it has a firm structure and captivating acidity that end in a marked depth. A must in your selection!

Description

Now an internationally famous name, with a past of great tradition but now distinguished by its avant-garde style. The company was founded in 1972, when Aldo Vaira decided to stop selling grapes and start making wine with a mix of tradition and experimentation. Located in Vergne, it has 60 hectares, but they still like to define themselves as a family farm accompanied by a young and dynamic team. The vineyards are mainly located in three municipalities of the Barolo DOCG: Novello with the Ravera cru, Barolo with the Bricco delle Viole, Fossati and Coste di Rose crus and finally Serralunga d’Alba with Cerretta and Baudana. Respect for the land, without the use of chemicals, and the deep link to its origins have always accompanied the philosophy of the winery. Old-fashioned work in the vineyards to preserve their innate quality gives their wines common characteristics of elegance, complexity and delicacy and reflects the result of an image they have built up step by step over the years.
