Gaja 'Alteni di Brassica' 2022
Vintage Character
The 2022 Langhe DOC Alteni di Brassica from Gaja presents a striking interpretation of Sauvignon Blanc, shaped by the calcareous and clay-rich soils of Piedmont’s Langhe hills. The 2022 vintage was marked by a warm, sunny growing season, which promoted generous ripeness while preserving the grape’s natural freshness—conditions that produced a wine with notable purity and vibrancy.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
This vintage delivers lively aromas of elderflower, grapefruit zest, and fresh-cut herbs, complemented by subtle hints of white peach and flint. On the palate, the wine is layered and harmonious, weaving together juicy citrus, ripe orchard fruits, and a mineral-driven backbone, all supported by a silky texture and a crisp, lingering finish. Alteni di Brassica’s versatility at the table shines with pairings such as seared scallops with lemon beurre blanc, goat cheese and herb tart, or the delicate flavors of Cantonese poached chicken, making it a compelling choice for a range of cuisines.
Winery Background
Founded in 1859, the Gaja estate stands as a benchmark of quality and innovation in Italian winemaking, now guided by the fifth generation of the Gaja family. The estate is renowned for introducing international grape varieties to the Langhe, and for elevating Italian white wines through meticulous vineyard management and a philosophy that marries tradition with forward-thinking practices. Gaja’s commitment to low yields and sustainable viticulture underscores their focus on expressing the unique character of each site, ensuring that wines like Alteni di Brassica capture both the distinctive terroir of the Langhe and the visionary spirit of the Gaja family.
