The Gaja Costa Russi 2020 is a profound single-vineyard expression from the heart of Barbaresco in Piedmont. The name “Costa Russi” reflects both the vineyard’s hillside position (“Costa”) and the nickname of the historic sharecropper who once tended these prized vines.

Crafted by the iconic Gaja Winery, a benchmark estate founded in 1859, this wine embodies a legacy of innovation and terroir-driven excellence. Under the visionary leadership of Angelo Gaja, the estate elevated Barbaresco to global prestige, pioneering single-vineyard bottlings and redefining quality standards in Italian winemaking.

The 2020 vintage reflects both precision and elegance, capturing the essence of Nebbiolo grown on the calcareous marl soils of the Langhe hills, delivering a wine of finesse, aromatic clarity, and age-worthy structure.

Appearance: Brilliant ruby red with luminous garnet reflections, indicative of youthful vibrancy and refinement.

Aroma: Expressive and layered, the bouquet opens with pronounced notes of ripe strawberries and plums. As it evolves, it reveals an intricate spectrum of raspberry, red currant, crushed pepper, verbena, elderflower, and delicate hints of marzipan.

Palate: Silky and beautifully balanced, the palate begins with a subtle impression of sweetness, leading into a rounded, harmonious mouthfeel. Juicy red fruits intertwine with floral and lightly spiced nuances, supported by fine, polished tannins and vibrant acidity.

Finish: Elegant and persistent, with lingering notes of red berries, floral tones, and a refined mineral edge.
