Description

The jewel in the crown of Italian winemaking, the Gaja winery, was founded in 1859 by Giovanni Gaja in the Barbaresco region (Piedmont, Italy). Today, Gaja is owned and managed by the fifth generation of the family, having built a tradition of unreserved dedication to achieving uncompromising quality over the years. Thanks to Barbaresco, the winery's flagship, in the early 20th century, Gaja wines took leading positions in Italy. In 1961, Angelo (Giovanni's great-grandson) joined the winery, skillfully combining the preservation of the traditions of the Langhe region with bold innovative solutions - both in the vineyards and in the wineries themselves. Angelo was also the first to introduce the wonderful Gaja wines to international markets. Today, the winery owns 250 acres of vineyards in the Barbaresco (Barbaresco and Treiso) and Barolo (Serralunga d'Alba and La Morra) areas, as well as in Tuscany (Pieve Santa Restituta in Montalcino and Ca'Marcanda, located in the Bolgheri area).

The Gaja family changed history once again when they planted Sauvignon Blanc in Barbaresco in 1983. Today, the grapes for this mineral Sauvignon Blanc are harvested from the original plantings in Barbaresco, and the newer vineyards from Serralunga d'Alba. 7.5 acres in total. The name consists of two traditionally common elements in the Piedmont landscape. "Alteni" are classic small white stone walls that surround the vineyards in Piedmont. "Brassica" is the name of the beautiful yellow flowers around the vineyards in spring.

Golden color and elegant aroma, filled with fruity and mineral notes. A harmonious wine with a dense structure, balanced body, and excellently measured acidity level. A sophisticated Sauvignon Blanc with good aging potential.
