fresh mushrooms

full-bodied and with very silky tannins

spice and a very linear mineral tone at the back

it is built on its minerality with very fine intensity to the medium weight plus flavors that also culminate in an impressively long but still quite compact finish

full and very serious big-bodied and tautly muscular flavors supported by plenty of dry extract and superb length

GD Vajra, Barolo Ravera other_regions_italy fresh mushroomsMore structured than the Bricco delle Viole, this comes from a 2. 2 hectare, south and south east facing vineyard and is a first release. Its got a bloody, almost iron like note on the palate, firmish but well integrated tannins and minerally freshness. The tannins need food (preferably a lump of protein) to take away their edge. One to tuck away.
