A pretty, focused Riesling that has an attractive mineral quality. Refreshing and a wine I'd welcome on a warm day. I'm a fan of Vajra and it's fun to try something a little different by them.

Mineral, diesel, Alsace-like power with great focus. Transparent and pure like all Vajra wines

Always wanted to try the first one to bring Alsatian+German Riesling to Barolo! Great character with straw yellow tint and golden highlights, that VERY particular nose - almost melon-citrus with typical petroleum. Lots of longevity on this wine, and great acidità spiccata.

Gorgeous floral nose bordering on star jasmine x birch forest in its headiness, lovely weighted palate with fruit and acid perfectly matched, stunning wine.

Absolutely lovely wine - crisp, fresh, floral, stone fruit. Closer in taste and tone to a white Burgundy than a German Riesling - if I'd tasted it blind, I may have even guessed chard before riesling!
