Paid $38 for this 2019 Albe and it definitely impressed me… over delivering for the price point. Well integrated, grippy tannins but ready to drink after a few hours in the decanter! Dried cherry, cranberry, hibiscus, balsamic, leather, and slate. Fantastic QPR and need more of these bottles! Merry Christmas!

It’s damn good, especially at the price. Even better in 5 years!
Sometimes cliches exist for a reason. Meat and potatoes. Consistency.
Great producer! The entry-level Barolo from Vietti, Castiglione, is also excellent for ~$50.
I have a bottle or two, looking forward to trying.
I had this exact bottle planned for today but girlfriend couldn’t make it …. Will open on another date , new years perhaps.
$ 38 ?! , lucky you ! I paid $75 🫠.
Love GD Vajra ! Btw your notes make total sense.
