Langhe DOC Pinot Noir 2022 (750 ml.) - G.D. Vajra

THE WINE

Langhe Pinot Noir by G.D. Vajra comes from organic farming in the highest part of Bricco delle Viole, also known as Bricco di Vergne, between Barolo and La Morra. Here the view extends over the Alta Langa to the east and Monviso to the west. Vineyards and plots are harvested individually and Vajra often opts for multiple passes to respect the diversity of each vine. It is aged for 24 months in stainless steel tanks and oak barrels, patiently and until the wine blossoms into full harmony. An authentic expression of this variety in this terroir, this wine has its own identity. A complex bouquet of aromas ranging from dark red fruits recognizable in morello cherries, to purple flowers and delicate vegetables. This structure is accompanied by strong and noble tannins.
