The Gaja Costa Russi 2007, hailing from the prestigious Langhe region, showcases the remarkable characteristics of the Nebbiolo grape with elegance and depth. This wine presents a medium body that perfectly balances its high acidity, creating a vibrant and refreshing profile. The fruit intensity is notably prominent, highlighting luscious notes of dark cherries and ripe berries, complemented by hints of roses and subtle spices. Tannins remain firm, providing structure without overwhelming the palate. As a dry red, it exhibits a well-crafted harmony between fruit and earthiness, making it an outstanding representation of its terroir. Enjoying this vintage is a true delight for those who appreciate the finesse and complexity that Langhe wines have to offer.

Italy

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
