G.D. Vajra

Dolcetto d'Alba 2018

See several previous Delectable notes. Deeply coloured but not deep in palate - medium bodied. Liquorice and almonds, a juicy palate. Finishes with a skinnsy bitter note. Great with free range chicken legs. Probably best drunk young. From a highly reputable producer in GD Vayra. My last bottle of 6. β€” 2 days ago

Pio Cesare

Barbera d'Alba 2021

Pio is on πŸ”₯. Frederica has injected youth into this storied cantina, and has it firing on all cylinders. This was a voluptuous Barbera, bright red/purple hue, incredible mouthfeel. Great balance. I'd buy by the case at current pricing. β€” 2 months ago

Nebbiolo d'Alba 2021

Bright Ruby color with aromas of red berry fruits, spice and floral notes, aged for 14 months in French oak. On the palate flavors of cherry and strawberry with spice, licorice and floral notes. Fine chewy tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, floral spice and slight earthy character. Nice! β€” 2 months ago
