Critics reviews
Jancis Robinson MW 17/20
Sandy site between Cannubi and Bussia at 360–380 m. Vajra’s lowest. It’s a historic vineyard from Aldo’s parents that is fenced to stop grape pilfering. To be released mid 2024.
Truly floral aroma. Very fruity, expressive and flattering. Just a little dry on the end. Lots of energy. Relatively light.

Antonio Galloni 93/100
The 2020 Barolo Coste di Rose is an attractive, mid-weight wine. Black cherry, lavender, spice, menthol and licorice are nicely woven together. The Coste di Rose is not the most complex Barolo in the range but offers tons of sheer appeal, in a sensual, open-knit style that can be enjoyed with minimal cellaring.

Shuai Zekun 94/100
White pepper, dried roses, berries and mineral on the nose. Really elegant and chalky on the palate with medium to full body and a linear finish. Pure and driven.
Drink or hold
Kerin O'Keefe 96/100
The 2020 Coste delle Rose is a stunner, starting with its heady aromas of dog rose, lavender, juniper and eucalyptus. Combining finesse and density, the polished palate is delicious, delivering juicy red cherry, strawberry compote, blood orange, grilled sage and star anise alongside tightly knit, velvety tannins.
