Barolo 'Coste di Rose' by G.D. Vajra is synonymous with grace and elegance. Wine of great finesse and complexity thanks to the soils from which it originates rich in ancient sandstones. Refine in oak barrels for 36 months. It is a voluptuous and versatile wine with food. Intense and elegant hints of cherry and ripe red fruit, followed by rose petals, hints of mint and vanilla. Juicy taste, with tones of black cherry, silky tannins and well integrated into the solid structure, salty aftertaste. Soft and satisfying, excellent with traditional Piedmontese dishes.
