Product Notes

Renowned as one of Italy's finest offerings, G.D. Vajra's Barolo Bricco delle Viole is an embodiment of elegance and profundity intrinsic to Piedmont region. This crimson vino presents a nuanced bouquet of red fruits, roses, herbs and spices. Upon sipping, the palate is serenaded by plush tannins, rich flavours of dark cherry, clove and truffle, underpinned by an inviting acidity. Its harmonious balance leads to a lingering, velvety finish. Made from old vine Nebbiolo grapes, this wine's arresting complexity marvelously complements game dishes, matured cheese and roasted vegetables. An absolute gem for connoisseurs!

Tasting Notes

Brilliant ruby red in colour. On the nose, there is an incredible bouquet of purple flowers, raspberries and redcurrants, which interlace with hints of rose, rhubarb, toffee apple and incense. As the wine opens, layers of marasca cherries, white truffle, lavender and anise fill the nose. Expressive yet balanced on the palate, red fruit flavours, subtle minerality and refined tannins carry through onto the long finish.
