This follows the Serralunga pattern of small – 4 hectares small! – traditional producer, but there is a twist: it was bought out by G.D. Vajra, the great estate in the Commune of Barolo. Their tiny holdings are clustered in the northern sector around the hamlets of Baudana and Cerretta and they produce single vineyard Barolo from the Crus that bear those names – yeah, that’s Cru Baudana made by Baudana in the village of Baudana. The wines here are naturally powerful, a nice contrast to the airier Barolos of Vajra at the far western edge of DOC Barolo.
