Vajra has a way of taking the everyday grapes of Piedmont and elevating them to new levels, which is exactly what he has done with his 2009 Dolcetto d’Alba Coste & Fossati. This exquisite Dolcetto impresses for its layered personality, finessed tannins and exceptional elegance. A myriad of blue and black fruits, flowers, menthol, tar and licorice are just some of the nuances that flow from this beautifully balanced Dolcetto. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2015.
Aldo and Milena Vajra craft some of the most beautiful, original wines in all of Italy. Frankly, it is impossible to go wrong with any of these superb bottles.
