"Not only does Gaja make white wine, but one of the best Sauvignon Blancs you’ll ever taste. As the name ‘Alteni di Brassica’ implies, it’s just begging for Spring to get here. Sourced from two selected vineyard plots within Barbaresco and Serralunga, this wine combines the classic herbaceous and aromatic qualities of the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety with the elegance and refinement of the GAJA style." - LFW staff

The 2019 Alteni di Brassica is bright, focused and full of energy. Sage, mint, tomato leaf and a whole range of varietal accents lend vibrancy to this beautifully sculpted, phenolic in feel Sauvignon from the Gaja family. The 2019 was fermented and aged in a combination of steel and cask, with no racking until bottling. I especially admire the precision here.
