The Vajra family has farmed Bricco delle Viole, the highest cru in Comune di Barolo, since the XVII century. At the young age of fifteen, Aldo Vajra embraced the dream to revive his family legacy. Displaying a vision and commitment belying his young age, he took over the estate in 1968, turning a new page. Aldo soon acquired the first organic certification of the region (1971), created private biotype selections (selezioni massali) of Nebbiolo and Dolcetto, pioneered the renaissance of Freisa (a noble yet forgotten local grape, in 1980) and the cultivation of Rhine Riesling in Piemonte (1985). High elevation vineyards are a unique factor to the Vajra wines, for their attitude to express finesse and remarkable complexity over power. Attention to details and humility towards the nature, uncompromised efforts and humanity: so are Aldo and Milena, now joined by their children Giuseppe, Francesca and Isidoro, and by an amazing team of young professionals. G.D. Vajra is an independent winery, entirely family-owned.
