Marchesi di Gresy Gaiun Martinenga Barbaresco DOCG 2017 750 ML

In the 1960’s, Alberto di Gresy spent much of his time supervising the agricultural operations of the family estates where he concluded early on that he didn't want to limit himself to selling the grapes from his vineyards to the finest wine producers in the area as was the tradition in the Langhe. In 1973 Alberto di Gresy began vinifying his own wine: the objective to produce wine with the best available technology while respecting tradition, and to transfer as much as possible of the character and personality of the terrain, vineyard site and varietal into the bottle.\n\nThe Tenute Cisa Asinari dei Marchesi di Gresy, made up of four estates situated in the Langhe and in the Monferrato zones, is recognized for producing many of the greatest wines in the Piedmont region. The MARTINENGA estate in the Langhe near Alba grows primarily Nebbiolo grapes for the production of Barbaresco as well as Barbera d.o.c. and Cabernet Sauvignon d.o.c. Also, at Martinenga, are newer vineyards of Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Nearby in the Commune of Treiso d’Alba is the MONTE ARIBALDO estate where Dolcetto d'Alba is grown along with Chardonnay and Sauvignon. In Monferrato, in the Commune of Cassine, the LA SERRA estate produces Moscato d'Asti, Barbera d'Asti and Merlot and the MONTE COLOMBO estate produces Barbera d'Asti and Merlot.
