Take the stress out of buying a gift, let them choose exactly what they want.
Always a classic, Albe is a blend of three vineyards from around the estate. This is quite fleshy with flavours of wild cherry, wild herbs and a little liquorice root. Already charming and welcoming, there is still a fine twist of tannins gripping the fruit. One to enjoy over the next ten years.

Do you have a favorite pair of jeans or a favorite dress that you keep in your closet for all occasions? That's the equivalent of this wine. The G.D. Vajra 2021 Barolo Albe is an enormously versatile expression of Nebbiolo, with an affordable price, that offers more value for your money than most Barolos out there. The bouquet focuses on dark berry, pressed flower and crushed stone. It offers good sharpness over broad lines. The mouthfeel is medium-plus in texture and it closes with silky, accessible tannins. Fruit comes from three cru sites: Coste di Vergne, Fossati and La Volta.
The 2021 Barolo Albe is bright, aromatic and vibrant in the glass. Medium in body and super-refined, the 2021 is a delight. This is one of the more understated recent vintages I can remember tasting. It’s a terrific introduction to this range.
