Barolo Conteisa Gaja 2019

The 2019 Barolo Conteisa underwent an 18-month ageing process in French oak barriques and tonneaux, featuring a minimal proportion of new oak. Subsequently, it spent another 18 months maturing in large Slavonian oak casks. The nose is still slightly reserved, with savoury, spicy, and salty nuances. The palate is elegant, marked by a tightly woven structure. A fresh acidity imparts liveliness, almost reaching a brisk quality, while ample coating tannins gradually assert themselves more prominently towards the finish.
