G.D. Vajra Claré J.C. 2024 domaine-olivier-merlin Proprietor Hubert de Böuard remindedTasting Notes: The G. D. Vajra Langhe Nebbiolo JC Clare is a piece of Piemontese history in a bottle. Crafted from younger Nebbiolo vines with an eye on the past, this red opens with a slight spritz that blows off with some time in the glass. Candied cherry, wild strawberries, orange blossoms, and a touch of spice on the finish make this the perfect candidate for a slight chill, to be enjoyed on hot days with grilled foods, even fish.
