Tasting profile
Structure: light-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, dry
Vajra's Rosabella is a rosé de saignée built mainly on Nebbiolo (about 90%) with a small addition of Barbera and Dolcetto from vines at least a decade old. Cool fermentation with no malolactic keeps it fresh and aromatic: bright peach-pink in the glass, with orange blossom, blood orange and strawberry on the nose, and a dry, crunchy palate with a saline, mineral finish.

Where it comes from
Piedmont, Italy
Piedmont (Piemonte) sits in the northwest of Italy, tucked against the Alps, and is prized for some of the country's most serious and long-lived red wines.
Barbera
Barbera is a red grape from the Piedmont region of northwest Italy, long the everyday red of the area and now taken seriously enough to rival its noble neighbour Nebbiolo in quality-minded hands.
Dolcetto
Dolcetto is a red grape from Piedmont in north-west Italy, valued as the region's everyday red alongside its more austere neighbours Barbera and Nebbiolo.
Nebbiolo
Nebbiolo is a red grape from Italy's Piedmont, the noble variety behind Barolo and Barbaresco and one of the world's great age-worthy wines.
