WineSaint
Vajra's revival of ancient Alto Piemonte varieties pays off beautifully here. Wild cherry and orange zest meld with dried herbs and crushed stone minerality. The palate shows impressive depth and energy, with polished tannins that frame the finish nicely. A compelling rediscovery that showcases Piedmont's forgotten treasures.
