Vajra's Langhe Nebbiolo is a pure expression of the grape variety. The grapes come from Barolo vineyards like Bricco delle Viole and Fossati but are under 20 years in age. It's not meant to be a 'little Barolo' but a picture of what the variety is without much winemaking in the way. Vinified in stainless steel and only a small percentage will be aged in wood in powerful vintages. This is a racy and delicious Nebbiolo that showcases the ethereal side of Nebbiolo, the floral and spicy cherry, but also the tannin and power that we love.
