6500 bottles produced. Foravia was born as a game and as a challenge, to demonstrate how much fun you can have with Nebbiolo. The aim was to obtain a less tannic, less powerful, less austere Nebbiolo, which could also be drunk eating fish. They decide to make it with 60% of the whole bunch, and this is where the real challenge lies. A Langhe Nebbiolo Foravia, which in fact in Piedmontese means "outside the rules"; whole bunches, selection of those with woody stalks. “In the lignified stem there is potassium. What does potassium do? From roundness to wine”. And as soon as you taste Foravia everything is immediately clear. For the fermentation, with partial carbonic maceration in an open tank, they use cement; the refinement takes place in small exhausted wood for 8 months. Aromatic bouquet for a wide sip of wild small red and blue fruits, and crunchy.

Grown in the Langhe region of Piedmont, this Nebbiolo will age for the short to medium term however it is also made to drink beautifully when young. Coming from what most regard as the spiritual home of the Nebbiolo grape the wine shows the typical structure and freshness of this variety when grown with care and attention to detail. It has a brilliant red color, the fragrance is characteristic, intense, delicate, with violet and raspberry scents. The wine is dry, velvety and harmonic in the mout

Gaja’s Conteisa is a landmark of the Langhe, sourced from the revered Cerequio vineyard in La Morra. Its name, Piedmontese for "quarrel," references a centuries-old land dispute between the communes of Barolo and La Morra for ownership of this site. This vineyard is prized for its south-facing exposure and unique microclimate, locally known as the "Riviera of the Langhe", where snow melts first, allowing vines to benefit from a long, steady ripening period. Precision is central to the Gaja approach. The nebbiolo grapes are fermented in stainless steel before undergoing a double maturation process. The wine spends 12 months in barriques, followed by 18 months in large traditional oak casks. This method balances the structural influence of small wood with the aromatic purity preserved by larger vessels, resulting in a Barolo of exceptional poise. Consistent with the Cerequio terroir, Conteisa is defined by its aromatic lift and "silk-and-steel" texture. The nose reveals wild strawberry, red cherry, and crushed violets, underpinned by notes of mint and liquorice. On the palate, expect a medium-to-full body, fine-grained tannins, and a persistent mineral finish. It is a sophisticated expression that rewards long-term cellaring.
