Score 91/100 · Drink 2014-2024, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2010

The 2006 Barolo Albe is made from vineyards in Fossati, La Volta and Coste di Vergne, all in the town of Barolo itself. The Albe is a beautiful, supple Barolo graced with exquisite fruit and a plump, juicy personality. It can be enjoyed with a minimum of bottle age or also cellared for at least a decade. This is a marvelous effort from Vajra and is the equivalent of the top wine at many other estates.

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.
