Let’s talk about Sangiovese - Gamla

More questions

Sangiovese Gamla comes from 100% Sangiovese grapes aged for 12 months in French oak barrels. The vineyards are cultivated in an area that goes from the shores of the Sea of Galilee to the base of Mount Hermon, at an altitude that starts from 400 m asl up to 2100. The soil is volcanic and basalt in composition, the climate is quite temperate given the proximity to Mount Hermon.

Upon visual examination it shows a ruby red color with garnet reflections. The bouquet is enhanced by fruity sensations of raspberry, cherry and mandarin, with perceptions of potpourri, earthy hints and leather. This great Sangiovese is medium-bodied and structured, with a nice varietal character.

A glass to combine with important meat courses such as roasts, braised meats or game and game.

The story
The Gaja family has been present in the Langhe since the second half of the 19th century; the estate, established in the community of Barbaresco, became internationally renowned thanks to its modernization choices and the bottling of wines from individual vineyards. In the 1960s and 1970s Angelo Gaja introduced single-vineyard labels and experimented with techniques and grape varieties new to the area. Over time the estate has expanded beyond the heart of the Langhe with investments and holdings in other Italian regions.
