G.D. Vajra
G.D. Vajra 'Bricco delle Viole' Barolo 2017, Piedmont, Italy - 1.5l
Young wines rarely offer quite such an intense flavour sensation. That cannot be said of Barolo Bricco Delle Viole, the flagship wine of G.D. Vajra. The aroma offers an irresistible treat for the senses, blending cherry, rose, leather, pine, and tobacco. This unabashed combination continues into the taste. This is an acidic red with a welcome sense of depth, blending sweet and deep fruit flavours with a complex spicy finish that lingers long on the tongue and lips. Decant or allow this wine to breathe in the glass for additional benefit, but be prepared for an astonishing taste sensation from the moment you pop the cork.

WHAT IT GOES WITH
Roasted red meats will always pair well with this wine. However, you’ll find similar pleasure in matching this red with a strong, mature cheese – or if seeking a lighter bite, use it to optimise the taste experience of truffles or mushrooms.
ABOUT THE VINEYARD
GD Vajra has been a part of the Italian wine industry since 1972. The founder of the vineyard, Aldo Vaira, retains control to this day - the moniker is a tribute to his father, Giuseppe Domenico. GD Vajra presently owns over 60 hectares in the village of Vergne, which can be found in Barolo territory. While Aldo Vaira is strictly a traditionalist when it comes to winemaking, there are unique flourishes to this vineyard - not least the fact that grapes are grown at high altitude, in excess of 400 metres above sea level. Such elevation permits and unspoiled growth period that unleashes hitherto-untapped levels of flavour.

A wooden box can make your magnum look even more special, especially if you want to personalise it for a gift. We can engrave up to 50 characters, in one of five different fonts, to the front of the wooden box.
We always intend to despatch any orders on the same day, on a next day delivery service, assuming checkout is completed before 1pm as this gives us enough time to prepare the package.
You can also track your order throughout the process, ensuring that you’re home to accept it or make alternative arrangements with DPD.
If ordering as a gift, please provide the recipient’s address and a contact telephone number so they are notified a delivery is coming. While the arrival of a magnum will surely be a welcome surprise, we want to ensure somebody is available to sign for the package. We’ll keep you updated about the delivery progress, and supply a purchase invoice that doubles as a receipt for your financial records to your email address. We never include an invoice with the package in case it is a gift.
We rarely need to process returns, but in the improbable event that we need to do so, we will offer a full refund on any product returned in its original packaging and in a re-sellable condition. Unfortunately we cannot refund shipping costs.
