About this wine
GAJA, Barbaresco DOCG
Fruit is sourced from no less than 14 vineyards situated in the municipality of Barbaresco from vines averaging 40 years. The parcels from each single vineyard undergo fermentation, maceration and ageing in oak for 12 months before being artfully blended and further aged in oak for another 12 months. Each parcel brings its unique character to the wine, highlighting the features of the different terroirs, creating a complex, elegant, balanced wine. The nose displays fruits, flowers, delicate spices, and mineral notes with a dense yet filigreed palate structure and a lingering finish with refined tannins.

Gaja
Founded in 1859 by Giovanni Gaja, this prestigious wine estate has been handed down through five generations of the Gaja family. Fourth generation Angelo Gaja is the estate’s current owner. Gaja has 110 ha of vineyard holdings in Tuscany (Montalcino, Castagneto and Bolgheri) and Piedmont (Barbaresco and Barolo). Acquired in 1994 by the Gaja family, Gaja Pieve Santa Restituta is an estate in Brunello di Montalcino. The name refers to the Pieve or Parish Church of Saint Restituta located on the property. The 17.6 ha vineyard is located in the south-west subzone of the appellation on white, rocky soils, which over the years has proven to produce some of the region’s finest wines. A second vineyard of 11 ha was bought on the north-eastern sub-zone in 2006. Pieve Santa Restituta produces a classic, blended Brunello di Montalcino and two vineyard-designated wines, Brunello di Montalcino Sugarille and Brunello di Montalcino Rennina.
