Description
Discover the VAJRA BAROLO RAVERA, a distinguished red wine from Italy's Piedmont region, crafted by a family with deep roots in Barolo's landscapes. Since the 1880s, the Vajra family has tended Bricco Delle Viole, recognized as the highest cru within the Comune di Barolo, preserving a legacy tied to the land's unique character.
In 1968, at just fifteen, Aldo Vajra stepped forward to lead the estate, channeling youthful determination into its revival. His early achievements included securing the area's first organic certification in 1971, alongside developing private biotype selections for local grapes. He breathed new life into Freisa in 1980 and introduced Rhine Riesling cultivation to Piemonte in 1985, showcasing bold innovation grounded in tradition.
The family's work evolves today through ongoing vineyard studies that explore soil dynamics and climate influences. High-elevation sites play a key role, lending their wines an elegant finesse and layered depth. Ventures into historical styles include limited releases like “N.S. della Neve,” a champagne-method rosé nature, and “Claré JC,” featuring partial whole-cluster fermentation of pure Nebbiolo—efforts to honor 17th-century expressions predating modern Barolo.
Aldo and Milena Vajra, supported by children Giuseppe, Francesca, and Isidoro, along with a dedicated team of young experts, uphold principles of meticulous care and respect for nature. This independent, entirely family-owned winery channels their collective passion into bottles that capture Piedmont's authentic essence.
At 13.80% ABV and in a 750 ml bottle, VAJRA BAROLO RAVERA offers a dry profile with sweetness level 01, inviting you to experience the harmony of heritage and high-altitude precision. Priced at $116.00, it's an invitation to savor a piece of Vajra's enduring story in every glass—perfect for those seeking a red wine that whispers tales of family dedication and terroir purity from Piedmont's storied hills.
