Brand Description
The history of this family-run winemaking business stretches back over several generations of the Rapalino family, but it was not until quite recently that La Ganghija evolved into its present form; i.e., actually making wine from its own grapes rather than selling them. La Ganghija was created in 2004 out of Enzo's passion and love of wine. La Ganghija is still very much a family affair with Enzo's wife Milena and his parents Giovanni and Rita complete the team. Today the winery covers an area of seven hectares of vineyards located in the communes of Treiso, Magliano Alfieri and Madonna di Como. Their flagship wines are the Barbaresco DOCG and the Barbaresco produced in the Giacosa cru, in the commune of TreisNOTES OF
SCENT & FLAVOR
COLOR
Deep colour, almost opaque.
NOSE
Aroma of excellent complexity, with wild bush and spicy notes like curry, pepper and ginger, red berries and black fruits mixed with a light cacao touch, the result of a good maturation, along with a slightly stony finish.
PALATE
On the palate it has a powerful attack, with a lively acidity, firm and well present tannins, wild bush and red berry notes, with an extremely long finish and great concentration.
“Thanks to the characteristics and potential of the vineyards at Quinta do Seixo, it was possible to cut through the strong maturations of this year's harvest. As a result, we produced very balanced and robust wines, with aromatic notes typical of more mature years.” - Luís Sottomayor, head of Sogrape's winemaking
