- Traditionally, Gamba Rossa vines were trained on living support structures like trees. However, this method posed challenges as the vines struggled to receive adequate sunlight for proper ripening, limiting its potential as a premier variety.
- Additionally, Gamba Rossa is highly susceptible to botrytis bunch rot, particularly during rainy autumns.
In their youth, Gamba Rossa wines exhibit a charming medium-ruby color, accompanied by vibrant floral notes and red berry aromas, all within a medium-bodied structure. As these wines age beyond five years, they develop an amber-red hue, accompanied by a richer array of spicy, peppery, tarry, and balsamic aromas and flavors.
