Here’s an exciting discovery from G.D. Vajra. The 2020 Piemonte Barbera Freisa is an excellent wine and a worthy value proposition. Both the grapes used in the blend, Barbera (55%) and Freisa (45%), are celebrated locally for their versatility and their ease when paired with the local foods.

From tagliarini with a light meat sauce to Bra pork sausage that is put on the grill in one giant coil, this wine has you covered. The wine’s 15.5% alcohol content and its generous fruit keep the palate food-ready. The back label explains that estate patriarch Carlo (Carlin) Vajra produced a mysterious blend of the two grapes in 1970.

That legacy lives on in this inaugural release of 3,000 bottles. This wine delivers black fruit with a hint of extra ripeness or blackberry preserves on the finish.

About G.D. Vajra Wines

Wines that do not need to talk out loud or flex their muscles, but will touch the hearts of all.

There is no vineyard, no terroir, without the land. To love it is simple, but not easy. The land is generous and alive. It is beautiful. It needs understanding and time. It takes your breath away with its colors and many wonders.

The land asks for absolute dedication. It asks to be loved for better or worse, in abundance and scarcity. The land is almost more than a house. It’s part of our life and asks to be guarded with the same tenderness that we have for our loved ones. And the amazing thing is that, despite all the difficulties, to love it does not need any effort.

This is the origin of the esteem and affection for the people who have lived and loved our land. An affection that becomes a desire of identification and makes us want to share it with our friends.
