Description

G.D. Vajra’s 2024 Kyè is an organic Langhe red that showcases Freisa, a historic Piedmontese grape with a distinctive, lively character. Its name means “Who is it?” in local dialect—a playful nod to a variety once overlooked and now celebrated for its own identity and its genetic connection to Nebbiolo.

Tasting Notes
Translucent garnet in colour, Kyè opens with rose petals, wild strawberry and cherry, with subtle notes of white pepper and clove. The palate is juicy yet structured, with fine, enveloping tannins, fresh energy and a lingering finish. Its structure and extended maturation give it the potential to develop further in bottle, though no specific drinking window is provided.

Production
The Freisa comes from two historic parcels in Langhe, where mineral-rich alluvial soils contribute to the wine’s lively character. The grapes are harvested by hand in late September and undergo a meticulous three-stage selection: in the vineyard, on sorting tables and berry by berry after gentle destemming. Slow fermentation is followed by spontaneous malolactic fermentation, and the wine is matured for 26 months, mainly in large Slavonian oak casks.

Food & Serving
Serve with game or mature cheeses. A serving temperature of around 16–18°C will help showcase its fruit and freshness. Decant for about an hour before serving, as recommended by the producer.

Producer
Family-owned G.D. Vajra is based at one of the highest points in the commune of Barolo and has farmed its vineyards using sustainable practices for more than 50 years. The estate has championed Freisa since 1989, giving renewed attention to this deeply rooted Piedmontese variety through its Kyè bottling.
