Expert Reviews
Offering a level of aromatic clarity and elegance that is not always easy for this grape, the G.D. Vajra 2022 Barbera d'Alba Superiore Viola delle Viole has beautiful aromas of earthy iris, gentle oak spice, toasted allspice and a very ripe or soft quality of fruit. It all balances out smoothly to the senses. The tannins are tucked softly within that texture to good effect, giving support but no harshness. This is a well-made Superiore with both intensity and balance.
The 2022 Barbera d'Alba Superiore is a rich, heady, powerful wine. Dark red/purplish fruit runs through this dense, muscular wine. Readers will find a distinctive Barbera of uncommon depth, structure and complexity.
