Depending on the vintage, Gaja Costa Russi can be either be labeled Langhe or Barbaresco.
Langhe is broad regional wine designation covering the hilly subregion east of the Tanaro river and south of Alba, in the Cuneo province of Piedmont (Piemonte). Its area encompasses some of the great appellations of Piedmont and numerous top producers of Barolo and Barbaresco also make wines under the Langhe label. The name "Langhe" is the plural form of "langa" – a local word for a long, low-lying hill.
The variety is the superstar grape variety behind the top-quality red wines across northwestern Italy, and in particular, the heady, powerful reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Nebbiolo wines are often distinctively perfumed with an aroma described as "tar and roses"; along with a moderate body; strong, tannic backbone; and high.
