Gaja Conteisa
Gaja’s Conteisa is a landmark of the Langhe, sourced from the revered Cerequio vineyard in La Morra. Its name, Piedmontese for "quarrel," references a centuries-old land dispute between the communes of Barolo and La Morra for ownership of this site. This vineyard is prized for its south-facing exposure and unique microclimate, locally known as the "Riviera of the Langhe", where snow melts first, allowing vines to benefit from a long, steady ripening period. Precision is central to the Gaja approach. The nebbiolo grapes are fermented in stainless steel before undergoing a double maturation process. The wine spends 12 months in barriques, followed by 18 months in large traditional oak casks. This method balances the structural influence of small wood with the aromatic purity preserved by larger vessels, resulting in a Barolo of exceptional poise. Consistent with the Cerequio terroir, Conteisa is defined by its aromatic lift and "silk-and-steel" texture. The nose reveals wild strawberry, red cherry, and crushed violets, underpinned by notes of mint and liquorice. On the palate, expect a medium-to-full body, fine-grained tannins, and a persistent mineral finish. It is a sophisticated expression that rewards long-term cellaring.

Gaja Rossj-Bass Chardonnay
"Angelo Gaja is, without question, the most famous wine producer in Italy. Possibly one of the most famous in the world. He is credited with developing techniques that revolutionised winemaking in Italy.- International Wine Challenge The 2023 Rossj-Bass is a bit of a milestone for Gaja. It’s the first white to come out of their brand new winery in Alta Langa, a purpose-built home for the future of their whites as the region warms and conditions shift. It also quietly marks the beginning of a new chapter for this famously forward-thinking family. Named after Angelo Gaja’s daughter Rossana (Rossj was her nickname) and a low-lying vineyard (‘bass’ meaning low), this wine has always been a blend of Chardonnay and a splash of Sauvignon Blanc from long-held vineyards in Barbaresco and Serralunga. But this vintage introduces something new - fruit from high-altitude terraces in Alta Langa, a cooler, wind-swept zone where Gaja’s recently planted vineyards are slowly coming online. Fermented mostly in stainless steel, with a touch of oak and a little malolactic, it’s a Chardonnay that walks the line between energy and softness. But the real story here is bigger than what’s in the glass. It’s Gaja thinking long-term, adapting to change and investing in what comes next - with the kind of care and quiet confidence that’s kept them at the top for generations.
