Vaira Aurelj Fuori Zona 'FZ' 2022
Vintage Character
Vaira Aurelj Fuori Zona 'FZ' 2022 in magnum is an outside-the-zone Nebbiolo made for drinkers who want Piedmont character without the strict formality of Barolo. The 2022 vintage was warm and dry, giving concentration and ripe fruit, while the estate's low-intervention approach keeps the wine from feeling overly polished. In magnum, the balance of fruit, freshness, and tannin should develop with extra patience and grace.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
The wine leans into Nebbiolo's red-fruited and floral side, with red cherry, wild strawberry, rose, orange peel, anise, and savory herbs. The palate is energetic, lightly grippy, and food-friendly, with enough structure for meat and mushroom dishes but enough brightness for more casual drinking. Try it with roast duck, tajarin with ragu, grilled pork, aged cheeses, or charcuterie.
Winery Background
Vaira Aurelj is run by brothers Francesco and Giacomo at their Vergne estate, where biodynamic farming and minimalist winemaking shape wines that feel alive and direct. Fuori Zona is their challenge to conventional boundaries, proving that expressive Nebbiolo does not need to follow the usual path. This magnum brings that rebellious energy in a format built for the table.
