> After a thorough maceration, the grapes first go into barriques for 12 months and are subsequently moved to large barrels for another 12 months. The wine then rests in the bottle for at least a year before being put on the market

Hints of plum and wild berries in jam, extremely evolved floral notes, as well as herbaceous hints tending towards balsamic, mint is evident. Cocoa and black pepper help make this nose intoxicating and unforgettable

Great balance between bursting freshness and a salty, soft and rounded, enveloping and powerful sip, with silky tannins and a very long finish

Barbaresco, Langhe

The **Gaja** winery is a world-famous name, a symbol of the wine excellence of the Langhe. Founded in 1859 in Barbaresco, it achieved success thanks to **Angelo Gaja**, who focused on the quality of Piedmontese wines through meticulous management of the vineyards and lowering yields to intensify aromas and flavors. Gaja has introduced innovations in winemaking, combining traditional and modern techniques, such as the use of barriques alongside large barrels.

In the 90s, Angelo expanded his business by acquiring properties in Bolgheri (Ca’ Marcanda), Montalcino and recently on Etna (Idda), always looking for the best terroirs.
