Luigi Baudana is a small estate - just 4 hectares - all in the commune of Serralunga d'Alba.  After 30 years of running the estate, and without children to take over from them, Luigi and Fiorina made the decision to sell to premium producer, G.D. Vajra (apparently, they visited the Vajra winery incognito and were so impressed with the set up that they approached Vajra, ignoring other lucrative offers that were on the table).  The Baudanas wanted to sell to someone that would continue their great work in the vineyard and cellars and the wines continue to get better and better.  The Barolo Baudana is a beauty, full of ripe red fruits and dark berries along with cocoa, chocolate, clove and spice.  The palate is rich yet balanced with fresh acidity and fine grained tannins, along with a chalky minerality and great length of finish.  One of the best Barolos you will find and relatively good value for the quality.
