This is a lot of wine for the $$. Lovely rose petal aromas. Delicious. Dark fruit balanced by classic Barolo bitterness.

2010 GD Vajra's ALBE Barolo--structure w such finesse. A theme I find in the majority of the family's wines. This Barolo, structured, yet feminine with a stitch of cherry & violet. Just yum! #certifiablydelish
