Allegrini
Palazzo della Torre Veronese Corvina Blend 2021
One of the wines that has made Allegrini famous, vineyard surrounds Villa della Torre. A blend of about 40% Corvina Veronese, 30% Corvinone, 25% Rondinella & 5% Sangiovese, deep Ruby with aromas of dried berry fruit and black pepper spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black cherry with vanilla, figs and licorice notes, good balance, lively acid with fine chewy tannins. Medium finish ending with fruit, mineral and earthy spice. Nice value. — 9 days ago

G.D. Vajra
Albe Barolo Nebbiolo 2020
Aldo Vaira took control of the family vineyards in 1968, when he was just 15 years old. Today, G.D. Vajra consists of 150 acres, mostly around the commune of Barolo.
Ruby with a rich bouquet of fruit, spices and floral notes, fruit from several vineyards, aged 26 months in Slavonian oak casks. On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry with notes of pepper, cinnamon and floral, slight earthy notes. Long finish, nice balance with fine soft tannins ending with earthy floral notes. Enjoyable now, a few more years will benefit. — a month ago

2021 vintage. Last tasted 7.17.24 (9.2). This "junior" Barolo continuing to bring the goods. Medium-heavy body. Likely best in another 7-10 years but showing nicely now. The nice price and a worthy choice while waiting for those big gun Barolos to come out of hibernation. 12.11.24. — 10 days ago
