The vineyards sit on calcareous marl soils at elevations that benefit from significant day-to-night temperature variation, allowing the grapes to develop aromatic intensity while retaining freshness and structure. The Langhe’s combination of sunshine, cooling influences, and mineral-rich soils gives the wine a character that is both varietally expressive and unmistakably Piedmontese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"594\" data-end=\"1089\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"594\" data-end=\"626\"\u003eWinemaking \u0026amp; Technical Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"626\" data-end=\"629\"\u003eOriginally planted as an experiment to explore Sauvignon Blanc’s potential in the Langhe, Alteni di Brassica has become one of Italy’s benchmark expressions of the variety. The fruit is carefully harvested and fermented with meticulous attention to preserving aromatic precision and textural depth. Aging is designed to enhance complexity and integration while maintaining freshness, resulting in a wine that balances richness, minerality, and vibrant acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1091\" data-end=\"1542\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1091\" data-end=\"1108\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1108\" data-end=\"1111\"\u003ePale gold in the glass, the 2023 opens with layered aromas of grapefruit, passion fruit, lime zest, elderflower, and fresh herbs. The palate is vibrant yet textured, delivering concentrated citrus and tropical fruit balanced by bright acidity and a pronounced mineral backbone. Notes of white peach, flint, and subtle spice emerge with air, leading to a long, focused finish marked by precision, energy, and remarkable persistence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1544\" data-end=\"1978\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1544\" data-end=\"1570\"\u003eFood Pairing \u0026amp; Service\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1570\" data-end=\"1573\"\u003eA sophisticated and versatile white wine, this Sauvignon Blanc pairs beautifully with shellfish, grilled seafood, fresh goat cheese, herb-roasted poultry, and vegetable-driven cuisine.

With age, its bright citrus and herbal character will deepen into more complex notes of honey, flint, and savory minerality while retaining the freshness and precision that define this distinctive wine.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gaja","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46245141446852,"sku":"TR31794","price":189.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/8635\/9236\/files\/GajaAltenidiBrassicaLanghe2023750ml.jpg?v=1781382734","url":"https:\/\/www.prismfinewine.com\/products\/gaja-alteni-di-brassica-langhe-2023-750ml","provider":"Prism Fine Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
