Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Gaja 2019 Barolo Conteisa is a smooth operator with forest floor, dried fruit, autumn leaf and pickled plum from Japan with elements of both saltiness and sweetness. Conteisa goes for the high notes with floral tones, violet and something brittle like a laurel leaf. Its texture is very silky and tight. The wine persists with a smooth and long tenor.

Description
Gaja Conteisa wine comes from one of Italy's most prestigious wineries, known for its commitment to quality and tradition.
Winemaking
Gaja Conteisa is made with 100% Nebbiolo from the Conteisa vineyard, located in Cerequio. Fermentation and maceration take place over a period of three weeks, followed by ageing in oak for 30 months.
Taste
This particular wine stands out for its fresh bouquet, with fine, ripe tannins that promise a pleasant drink. Its nose is open and persistent, starting with floral notes, in particular rose petals and violet. Over time, deeper botanical characters develop with hints of juniper, dandelion and incense. On the palate, the pure essence of Cerequio leads to sweet notes of red cherry, strawberry, raspberry, thyme and aniseed. Polished tannins and bright acidity balance the fruit concentration, resulting in a medium weight structure with remarkable ageing potential.
