Tasting Notes

Intensely fragrant, G.D. Vajra’s stunning 2019 Ravera features aromas of violet, iris, red berry, baking spice and menthol. It’s luminous, elegantly structured and focused, offering sour cherry, raspberry, star anise and crushed mint alongside taut, refined tannins. Drink 2027–2044. Abv: 14%

Novello. Mid-to-deep ruby. Perfumed cherry with a hint of gingerbread but more complex than it sounds. Compact sour-cherry palate that is medium- rather than full-bodied and with a succulent finish carried by finely ground tannins. Still a little embryonic, tighter and a little more nervous than their Bricco delle Viole. Drink 2024 – 2032
