Tasting notes

Profumo

Perfume

It rises with whiffs of wild fruits, lavender and damask rose, jammy cherries and musk, a precious touch of mushrooms and roots, cedar wood, then coffee, juniper and fresh balsamic input.

Colore

Color

Ruby with slightly garnet hues, becoming slightly mottled at the edges.

Gusto

Taste

The absolute elegance of this cru is also immediately apparent in the mouth, where the flavours dance in an aromatic tourbillon that appears precise in its references and supported by proverbial freshness and savoury minerality. The tannin, for its part, appears as polished as a Canova sculpture, leading to a limitless finish that displays unique energy and character.

Serve at:

16 - 18 °C

The Gaja family settled in Piedmont in the mid-seventeenth century. Four generations have succeeded in producing wine since Giovanni Gaja in 1859, founded the winery in Barbaresco in the Langhe. Angelo, son of John, is the second generation. He married Clotilde Rey, who is credited traditionally credited with having imposed in the current company's production philosophy, oriented towards high-quality wine. The exponent of the third generation Giovanni Gaja was the son of Clotilde and Angelo Gaja, who died in 2002. Angelo Gaja, the current owner, joined the company in 1961 and made his own choices that were already his father and grandfather. He worked to spread the knowledge of state and Barbaresco in foreign markets.
