Gaja Alteni di Brassica 2016

A distinctive Sauvignon Blanc from Piedmont, showing both aromatic intensity and refined structure. The bouquet is vibrant with citrus, gooseberry and passionfruit, lifted by floral notes and hints of sage and mint. The palate is crisp yet textured, with juicy fruit, a streak of tension and a long, elegant finish. Subtle oak ageing adds mouth feel and depth, giving the wine both freshness and sophistication. Powerful and nuanced, the Alteni di Brassica reaches a new level of complexity.

Produced by the renowned Gaja family, Alteni di Brassica takes its name from the small stone walls (alteni) that enclose Piedmontese vineyards and the yellow flowers (brassica) that grow among them. Since its first release in 1986, it has stood as one of Italy’s most celebrated white wines, showcasing Gaja’s innovative spirit and mastery beyond Nebbiolo.
