G D Vajra 2012 Bricco delle Viole (Barolo)
Ripe berry, violet, aromatic herb and cake spice aromas lift out of the glass. Structured and elegant, the palate delivers fleshy Morello cherry, black raspberry, cinnamon, tobacco and licorice alongside firm, polished tannins. It's already delicious and accessible. Best 2017–2022. Kerin O’Keefe
