Langhe Alteni di Brassica 2021, Gaja
A monumental white for charisma and stylistic rigor. The olfactory profile alternates the exuberance of Sauvignon with woody and mineral notes of extreme refinement. On the palate, it is dense, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between acidic drive and the softness of aging. A display of style that represents the pinnacle of artisanal Sauvignon Blanc in Italy.
Langhe Alteni di Brassica 2021, Gaja
Gaja’s 2021 Alténi di Brassica is a monumental work that redefines the concept of Sauvignon Blanc in Italy. Produced from vineyards located in Barbaresco and Serralunga d'Alba, this wine combines the grape’s typical aromatic profile with the structure and longevity of the great Piedmontese terroirs. The 2021 vintage delivered a harvest of extraordinary precision, marked by vibrant freshness and superb aromatic concentration. On the nose, it is a concerto of rare elegance: clear notes of yellow grapefruit, elderflower, and boxwood blend with deeper hints of white peach, sage, noble vanilla, and a mineral streak reminiscent of flint. On the palate, it is sumptuous and three-dimensional; the entrance is broad, dominated by dense, silky texture that stretches towards a savory, endless finish with interminable aromatic persistence, characterized by aristocratic balsamic freshness.
