Vajra G.D. Barolo Bricco delle Viole 2018
Bricco delle Viole is the vineyard that taught us patience and naturally guided the style of our craft.

Bouquet

Floral perfumes and minerality come out vividly, where red berries and sour cherry dominate the nose together with gentle scents of violet petal, rose bud and a hint of pine.

Flavour

Palate is succulent and full of energy, with very refined tannins and outstanding purity.
