The Story

Costa means slope in Italian and is often used in the names of vineyard designated wines. In wine-growing parlance, it denotes the side of a hill that faces the sun. Russiwas the nickname of the previous estate owner, who oversaw the vineyard management of this historic and privileged growing site. This 10-acre vineyard which lies in the township of Barbaresco was purchased in the winery's 1967 expansion of its vineyard holdings. GAJA's Costa ...

Vuosikerta 2023

In Italy, mildew dominated the wine landscape in 2023. May and June brought plenty of rain, which was ideal for the spread of Peronospora in southern and central Italy. Many winegrowers reacted too late, which meant that large areas were affected. In the north, powdery mildew caused problems. A hot September with temperatures above 30 degrees led to further losses. Across the country, losses were well over 20% compared to the previous year. Tu...

Sour cherry, pomegranate, and floral accents. Light on its feet, taut, and driven by crisp acidity and subtle tannin grip.

Playful, buoyant, and brimming with fresh energy. The aromas are high-toned and bright—sour cherry, pomegranate, and violet pastilles. On the palate, it dances rather than marches, leaving your mouth completely refreshed by a brisk splash of acidity and a gentle, chalky grip. It’s an unpretentious, joyous snapshot of young Nebbiolo that prioritizes charm over muscle.

The 2023 Costa Russi is dominated by high-toned red fruit and brilliant floral delicacy. Aromas of freshly picked sour cherries, pomegranate seeds, violet candy, and wet river stone lead the bouquet with airy precision. On the palate, it is light on its feet yet tightly coiled, featuring crisp, mouthwatering acidity and fine, powdery tannins that gently grip the gums. It delivers a pure, unvarnished look at the site’s innate elegance, promising a graceful and lifted evolution in bottle.


The Season: A year of weather extremes that concluded with ideal late-season conditions. Heavy, persistent late-spring rains brought fungal pressure (downy mildew) that demanded rigorous organic vineyard intervention. Mid-summer saw severe heatwaves that slowed vine metabolism and sunburned exposed clusters. However, late September through October brought crisp, clear days and chilly nights, allowing grapes to hang late into October to regain tension and acid definition.



The Style: Energetic, bright, and aromatically transparent. Avoiding the sheer density of 2022 and the monumental heft of 2021, the 2023s show crisp red fruit, lower pH levels, crunchy acidities, and finely powdered tannins. They favor tensile elegance, perfume, and linear drive over broad extraction.
