About this wine

Pajana is a south-facing slice of the Ginestra vineyard in Monforte, known for producing concentrated, structured Barolo. Domenico Clerico’s 2019 shows deep aromas of black cherry, plum and blackberry with mocha, vanilla, liquorice and violet. The palate is opulent and generous, but there is plenty of freshness and tannic grip to keep things in check, giving a long, spicy, slightly smoky finish. It’s a powerful, modern interpretation of Barolo that will shine with hearty dishes and time in the cellar.

Domenico Clerico

A defining voice of Monforte’s modern era. Domenico Clerico brought richness, energy, and technical precision to Barolo, combining powerful fruit with disciplined oak work.
