Vajra G.D. Barolo Coste di Rose 2018
Coste di Rose is a small MGA in Comune di Barolo. It is located on a steep slope that arises from Bosco della Fava and descends swiftly towards the border with Monforte d’Alba. The greatest emotion is the one you feel when reaching the top of the vineyard: a five-meter tall dune of pure Arenarie di Diano stands out there, as the witness of the unique soil composition of Coste di Rose. These sands provide Barolo DOCG Coste di Rose with its distinctive character: tones of cherry and rose petals, mint and sweet spices, a silky tannin and a juicy sip.

Bouquet

Aromas of roses, tones of marasca cherry and cherry stone, licorice, mint and sweet spices are rather explosive on the nose.

Flavour

In the palate, Coste di Rose is juicy, with tones of dark cherry, silky tannins and a saline aftertaste.
