Langhe DOC Nebbiolo G.D Vajra 2024
G.D Vajra is located in the west of the Barolo region in the heart of Piedmont. It was created after Aldo Vaira fell in love with the land while spending a summer there at the age of 15. He started his winemaking project in 1970 when he was not yet an adult, leaving the town for the countryside. The beginning was intense as he took winemaking courses at the university in Alba during the day and him and his wife Milena worked in the vineyards in the evenings and on weekends. Under their watchful eyes, the property grew in size to reach the 60 hectares that make it today. The vines are cultivated with care, according to organic and biodynamic principles on terraces sitting at altitude. The wines quickly made a name for themselves. Avoiding the overuse of wood, Vaira preferred - and still does - to create delicate, elegant wines. In order to find the perfect balance, long maceration and maturation are favoured.
Today, Aldo and Milena Vaira are joined by their three adult children who also manage a five-hectares estate in Serralunga d’Alba that was bought in 2008.
