Score 94/100 · Drink 2013-2022, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2010

The estate's 2007 Barbera d'Alba Superiore flows with exceptional depth and richness in a sumptuous style that never goes over the top. Vajra's trademark elegance is in full force, as dark fruit, spices, flowers and licorice meld together seamlessly. The Superiore is just a touch alcoholic and oaky at this stage, but a few more years in bottle should help wine come together nicely.

Vajra’s trademark elegance is in full force, as dark fruit, spices, flowers and licorice meld together seamlessly. The Superiore is just a touch alcoholic and oaky at this stage, but a few more years in bottle should help it come together nicely. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022. Aldo and Milena Vajra craft some of the most beautiful, original wines in all of Italy. Frankly, it is impossible to go wrong with any of these superb bottles.
