GD Vajra, Dolcetto d'Alba, Piedmont, Italy, 2013

Drinking Window: 2014 - 2016
An initially reduced nose clears with aeration to reveal violet and red plum notes. Finishes with mounting tannins and a hint of violet, tar and ink. A very big Dolcetto – almost too much – but it’s an impressive wine nevertheless. Needs decanting.

This iconic Piemontese name rarely fails to deliver. On the nose here you’ll find alluring, smoky blackberry, while the palate is vibrant, with polished red fruits and a fine dust of spices.
