Luigi Baudana (G.D. Vajra) Serralunga d' Alba Barolo Nebbiolo 2016

After a successful career spanning 30 vintages, Luigi Baudana engaged the Vajra family to begin taking over his vines and continue his legacy.andnbsp; The Vajras haveandnbsp;already begun to invest in the property, converting the vineyards to organic agriculture, and fine tuning the wine making in Luigi's cellar. As the years have progressed, the team at Vajra has clearly gained more confidence with the terroir, embracing the inherent bold character found in Serralunga that is not present in their own estate vineyards. This wine is sourced from 5 plots spread throughout Serralunga, capturing the character of this singular commune. Plenty of ripe red cherry fruit leads out over nervy acidity and persistent tannins. In contrast to the reputation of Serralunga typical brooding and foreboding wines, this is quite supple now and will continue to drink in well for years to come.
