The Rossj-Bass Gaja 2015, crafted by renowned producer Angelo Gaja, is a blend primarily of Chardonnay with a small percentage of Sauvignon Blanc. Named after Gaja’s youngest daughter, Rossana, this wine exemplifies meticulous craftsmanship. Fermented in stainless steel tanks, it undergoes six to seven months of ageing in barriques, which imparts subtle complexity. The nose reveals notes of ripe stone fruits, citrus zest, and delicate floral hints. On the palate, a textured body combines vibrant acidity with lingering fruity nuances. Gaja’s pioneering techniques have elevated Piedmont’s wine profile since 1970, shaping its modern identity.
