The Conteisa 2007 is a richly textured and expressive Barolo from a warm, generous vintage. The bouquet opens with ripe red cherry, raspberry, rose petal, and sweet spice, layered with notes of licorice and subtle balsamic nuance. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and supple, with polished tannins that give structure without austerity. Flavors of plum, orange peel, tobacco, and savory mineral tones unfold with depth and warmth. Despite the vintage’s ripeness, balance is maintained through fresh acidity and refined integration. The finish is long, smooth, and aromatic—an opulent yet harmonious Conteisa that reflects both vintage generosity and Gaja’s signature polish.

Gaja is one of Italy’s most iconic and transformative estates, responsible for elevating Barbaresco and Barolo to global prestige. Founded in 1859 and propelled to international acclaim under Angelo Gaja, the winery blends tradition with innovation, emphasizing meticulous vineyard management and uncompromising selection. Conteisa is sourced from the celebrated Cerequio vineyard in La Morra, one of Barolo’s most historic and aromatic crus. The estate’s philosophy marries precision viticulture with polished, modern cellar practices, including controlled fermentations and carefully judged oak aging. Gaja’s wines are known for combining structure with finesse and remarkable longevity. Conteisa represents the estate’s most refined and perfumed Barolo expression.
