Tasting Note

2019 Barbaresco has glaring vivid colors thanks to a good presence of anthocyanins. It immediately brings out notes of rose and wild strawberries followed by lighter notes of marzipan, wild fennel and a hint of juniper. Tasting saline, the wine has good length and a perception of crisp red fruits balanced by bright acidity. Together with the freshness and a tense structure, they define the main characteristics of the 2019 vintage.

Product Notes

Gaja Barbaresco is an Italian red wine that is highly coveted among wine enthusiasts and connoisseurs. It is produced from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the Barbaresco region of Piedmont, Italy, which is known for its high-quality wine production. The wine is characterized by its complex aroma, which has notes of cherry, plum, licorice, and spices, and its signature tannins, which provide a long finish to the wine. Gaja Barbaresco is aged for several years in oak barrels before being released to the market, resulting in a mature and balanced wine that is best paired with red meat, game, or aged cheese. It is a true reflection of Italian craftsmanship and the region's winemaking heritage.
