Our tasting note
The Promis combines the elegance and smoothness of Merlot and Syrah with the noble stringency of Sangiovese. It has a strong crimson colour. Its nose is dominated by an intensive bouquet of berries and black cherries. It has an elegant structure with power and intensity on the pallet with smooth tannins. Already very juicy and accessible even when young.

Our tasting note
A fantastic Super Tuscan. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and a little Petit Verdot combine to create a fruity and spicy firework, combined with elegance and sensuality. Pure and intense aromas of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, blackcurrants and eucalyptus. On the palate it has perfectly integrated wood with a smooth and fine texture.

Barolo Dagromis DOP
| Vintage | 2019 |
| Winemaker | Gaja |
| Region | Piedmont |
| Grapes | 100% Nebbiolo |
Winemaking
The Barolo Dagromis originate in the Nebbiolo wine gardens of the Serralunga and La Morra parishes. Following 3 weeks of fermentation in steel tanks, the wine matures in barriques for 12 months and in large oak barrels for 18 months.
Our tasting note
The Barolo Dagromis has a deep, ruby red colour and an intensive bouquet of wild berries, lilac in full bloom and a delicate herbal spice. On the palate you can detect the elegant structure, which is strong and velvety soft at the same time. It is the mirror opposite of an uncouth muscleman. Due to the longer ageing in the wine cellar, it is drinkable already young.

| Winemaker | Pieve Santa Restituta |

The Rennina then matures for 24 months in barriques, 12 months in large oak barrels, followed by 24 months of maturing in bottles.
Our tasting note
The Brunello Rennina has a rich, dark red colour. Very clean, opulent Sangiovese fruit with red-berry aromas, which melt into delicately herbal and floral note. Strong silky taste with a long-lasting, juicy finish.

Barbaresco DOP
| Vintage | 2020 |
| Winemaker | Gaja |
| Region | Piedmont |
| Grapes | 100% Nebbiolo |
Winemaking
The Nebbiolo grapes undergo 3 weeks of temperature- controlled fermentation at 26 to 30 °C in steel tanks. The wine then matures in barriques for 12 months, before spending a further 12 months in large oak barrels.
Our tasting note
The complexity achieved with this classic Barbaresco is the result of the combination of high-quality Nebbiolo from the 14 different Gaja vineyards around the parish of Barbaresco. The wine has a typical Barbaresco nose of wild berries, plums, liquorice and coffee. Despite its strength and intensity, Angelo Gaja's Barbaresco is known for its elegance and multi-layered finish with fine and silky tannins. Each Barbaresco produced by Gaja is an expression of the respective year and has a large potential for maturing. Big wine cinema!

Our tasting note
The Rossj-Bass has a fine floral aroma with a hint of citrus fruit and light notes of honey. It has a remarkable depth of taste, and is very elegant on the pallet with a robust body and pleasant freshness. Mineral, full-bodied finish. Very good storage suitability.
