I want to make wines that bring people happiness. ” ~ Aldo Vajra Technical notes The Vairas accumulated cuttings from the best vines in the area and planted a combination of mass and clonal selections between1982-2002 to soils that are primarily limestone with some marl. The hand-picked, triple sorted fruit was harvested from three estate vineyards in Barolo (Coste di Vergne, Fossati and Pascolo) and Ravera in Nerollo region.
