G.D. Vajra Barolo Ravera 2018
Red
Barolo, Italy

WineSaint
Brooding and austere, with earth, iron and dried herbs dominating over muted red fruit. The palate shows impressive backbone but feels somewhat hollow at its core, raising concerns about long-term balance. Built like a fortress yet missing the fruit density to match its imposing structure. Cellar 2026-2040.
