The wine

Le barolo Baudana est un vin italien issu de la collaboration entre Luigi Baudana et la famille Vajra (ayant racheté le domaine pour lui donner un souffle nouveau). Le cépage est typique de Barolo : 100% nebbiolo. Le terroir est composé de marnes calcaires.
Après une macération de 30 à 40 jours sous température contrôlée, la vinification est traditionnelle avec une fermentation déclenchée grâce aux levures indigènes. La fermentation malolactique est réalisée la première année. L’élevage dure 42 mois en foudres slovènes de 25-50 hectolitres.
A la dégustation, c’est un vin de terroir : élégant, complexe, raffiné et plein de fruits rouges, de notes florales et épices douces. Gardez ce vin de garde quelques années pour pleinement l’apprécier.

Information about domain G.D Vajra

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 40 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.
