The 2020 vintage was the first time that the Vigna Pajana was not been made as a Riserva. This hails from the 1.3ha plot in Cascina Pajana, within Ginestra, that the family purchased in 1996. The vines here are south-east facing and 30+ years old, on similar soils to Serralunga. There is a linear freshness and a graceful, silky fluidity to the texture. This is very, very good and feels as though the wonderfully perfumed concentration is trying to escape from the glass. The palate brims with vibrant, red berry fruit, dried rose and sweet pomegranate.
