A tribute to local tradition, the 2014 Barolo Albe represents an assembly of fruit from various vineyard plots throughout the area. Winemaking is classic in approach with a 25-day maceration period and aging in large Slavonian oak casks. This vintage shows silky, fine lines and a more accessible approach for near and medium-term drinking. I would recommend a few more years of bottle aging, however, to allow the wine the time to grow in texture and mouthfeel. (ML)(6/2018)

The Vajra family blends fruit from their high-elevation vineyards to produce this wine, an attractive, dark-fruited Barolo loaded with fresh herbs and zippy spices. It’s firm yet juicy, ready to decant now for a braised pork shoulder. (12/2018)
