Tasting Note

Fresh bouquet, fine and ripe tannins, great drinkability. Open and persistent nose. Floral in the beginning, with straightforward notes of rose petal and violet, it develops deeper botanical characters with hints of juniper, dandelion and incense. On the palate, the pure essence of Cerequio leads to sweet notes of red cherry, strawberry, raspberry, thyme and anise. Polished tannins and the bright acidity balance the fruit concentration, leading to classic medium-weight structure with remarkable ageing potential

Product Notes

Gaja Conteisa wine, a Barolo from Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy, is a luxurious embodiment of finesse and elegance. This illustrious red wine features tantalising hints of truffle, cherry and red berry fruits, balanced superbly with spicy undertones. Its vine, Nebbiolo, known for its thick and tannic nature, makes it a prime long-aging wine. Matured for 24 months in barriques, the end result is a complex, refined libation with harmonious oak and fruit notes. Its full-bodied, silky taste, rich colour and beguiling aroma make it an exceptional choice for special occasions and its ageing potential is second to none.
