A monumental white for charisma and stylistic rigor. The olfactory profile alternates the exuberance of Sauvignon with notes of tropical fruit and exceptionally refined minerality.

A stylish achievement that represents the pinnacle of auteur Sauvignon Blanc.
Langhe Alteni di Brassica 2022, Gaja
Gaja's Alteni di Brassica 2022 is a monumental work that testifies to the resilience of Piedmont's great terroirs. Despite a vintage marked by high temperatures, the Gaja family managed to produce a Sauvignon Blanc of surgical precision, where the density of the fruit never overwhelms the mineral tension. Produced from the historic vineyards of Barbaresco and Serralunga, this wine benefits from a brief passage in wood that refines its structure without overshadowing its identity. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of fresh papaya, lime zest, and elderflower blend with deep hints of wild mint, Madagascar vanilla, sweet pepper, and a mineral trace reminiscent of graphite. On the palate, it is sumptuous and three-dimensional; the entry is broad, dominated by dense, silky matter that unfolds toward a savory, endless finish with immeasurable aromatic persistence, characterized by aristocratic balsamic freshness.
