TASTING NOTES

Production

Gaja’s Barbaresco is born in the heart of the Langhe, from vineyards situated in the municipality of Barbaresco, on hills characterised by calcareous-clay soils and a microclimate ideal for Nebbiolo. It is produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, sourced from various selected plots, cultivated with great attention to quality and yields. The grapes are harvested by hand and vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks, with careful maceration to extract elegance, structure and complexity. Ageing occurs in oak barriques, partly new and partly second-use, followed by a further period in the bottle which harmonises the wine and completes its development.

Organoleptic Characteristics

Visually, it is ruby red in colour with garnet highlights. On the nose, it is elegant and complex, with aromas of ripe cherry, wilted rose and wild berries, accompanied by notes of sweet spices, tobacco, liquorice and light balsamic undertones. On the palate, it is structured and refined, with silky, well-integrated tannins, vibrant freshness and a deep, balanced flavour profile. The finish is long and persistent, displaying great finesse and elegance.

Occasion and Pairing

A wine that epitomises elegance and longevity, ideal for special occasions and for moments of mindful tasting. It pairs magnificently with red meats, roasts, braised dishes, game, traditional Piedmontese dishes and mature cheeses.

Serving Temperature

To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 16–18°C.

THE WINERY

Gaja

The wines from Piedmont are known far and wide. The Garesio winery and its products are certainly an example that well explains why. The passion that the family puts into production right from the start is a guarantee of quality and the continuous search for places to ensure the best wine production. With its 20 hectares of vineyards, the company aims for winemaking choices that can enhance the land where the grapes come from, the size of the crus and the distinctiveness of the individual grape varieties. The production of Garesio wines originates in the areas ranging from Serralunga d'Alba, in the heart of the Langhe cultivated with Barolo, to Incisa Scapacchio, Monferrato up to Perletto in Alta Langa. Cultivation takes place with respect for nature, with human interventions reduced to a minimum and studied in detail. The attention to the environment is also evident in the cultivation of Nebbiolo grapes, entirely certified organic, and of all the others, produced with sustainable integrated method. The quality of the wines is also ensured thanks to winemaking processes that take place with traditional methods, but with the help of the best modern technologies, which preserve the purity of the product variety. Furthermore, each harvest is maximized: the vinification is adapted according to the vintage, in order to highlight its distinctive characteristics. Name and address of producer/distributor: Garesio - Località Sordo, 1, 12050 Serralunga D'alba CN. Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
