Vaira Aurelj Barolo 'Fossati' DOCG 2021
Vintage Character
Vaira Aurelj Barolo 'Fossati' DOCG 2021 in 3L is a rare large-format release from a producer that has quickly become one of Vergne's most talked-about names. Fossati is a Barolo site known for Nebbiolo with perfume, finesse, and structure, and 2021 gives the wine a particularly complete frame of ripeness, freshness, and tannic precision. The 3L format makes this more than a bottle for dinner; it is built for long-cellar occasions and serious sharing.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Aromas move through rose, red cherry, wild strawberry, orange peel, anise, dried herbs, and fine earthy spice. The palate is full of Barolo tension, with bright acidity, firm tannins, and a layered finish that should become more expressive with time. Serve it with classic Piedmont dishes, braised beef, porcini risotto, aged hard cheeses, or roast duck when the wine has enough air to open properly.
Winery Background
Brothers Francesco and Giacomo farm biodynamically and work with a minimalist hand in the cellar, aiming for wines that buzz with energy instead of simply following convention. Vaira Aurelj's Fossati is the estate's statement Barolo, showing depth without losing lift. In this 3L format, it feels especially suited to collectors who want a rare bottle with both Barolo pedigree and outsider character.
