2024 Wine Spectator TOP 100 #9
This effusive red displays cherry raspberry rose iron juniper and hay flavors underscored by vibrant acidity. Harmonious and supple in texture with a long aftertaste of red fruit mineral and floral elements. Best from 2028 through 2049. 7000 cases made 3500 cases imported.
You can't beat this value. The G.D. Vajra 2020 Barolo Albe is buttoned up with fresh primary fruit and the wine does not have that hint of over-ripeness that is found across this vintage. The fruit is dark and savory and there is a big mineral component to match but the bouquet is nicely redolent of dark currant plum granite and a raspy dry note that brings crushed shale to mind. The tannins are quite impactful and they give this wine extra runway for moderate bottle aging. Published: Apr 04 2024
