The Vajra family embodies the beauty of the Langhe and the inseperable human history of its wines and culture. Founded in 1972 by Aldo Vajra, this estate was born out of a young man’s desire to reconnect with his family’s roots. At a time when many were leaving the countryside, Aldo went the other direction—back to his grandparents’ farm in Vergne, near Barolo village, to embrace a life of viticulture and stewardship. Today, with his wife Milena and their children Giuseppe, Isidoro, and Francesca fully involved, GD Vajra has become one of Piedmont’s most respected family-run estates.
The Vajra Family
GD Vajra’s Barolos are known for their purity, aromatics, and classical structure. The wines walk a line between tradition and clarity, blending long macerations and aging in large Slavonian oak with a modern sensibility toward freshness and finesse.
