Conteisa Barolo DOP

The Conteisa is a Barolo with a clear structure and plenty of drive on the palate. Gaja makes a wine from it that holds power and finesse together.

The Gaja winery was founded in 1859 in Barbaresco and has been one of the defining names in Piedmont for generations. Angelo Gaja has made the wines of the Langhe internationally known. As a Barolo DOP, the Conteisa is made from Nebbiolo, the grape variety that finds its most concise form on the hills of the Langhe.

In the glass, it shows a ruby red with garnet reflections. On the nose, ripe cherry and raspberry stand alongside rose petals and spicy notes. Dry on the palate, with taut acidity and firm tannins, which is typical for Barolo. The finish is long and fine.

Serve it at 16 to 18 °C and open the bottle a little earlier or decant it. It goes with braised beef, tajarin with white truffle or long-aged hard cheese.
