GAJA
Over the course of four generations, the Gaja family has graced the region of Piedmont with fine winemaking. Since taking the reins in 1961, Giovanni Gaja's great-grandson Angelo adds the merit of revolutionary thinking to the family's accolades. Amidst south-facing hilltops in Barbaresco, known in local dialect as "sori", Angelo Gaja committed to making exclusively estate grown wines.
Gaja's transformation of Piedmont and perhaps even Italy began with his short pruning methods, the introduction of barrique aging to his wines, and the importation of foreign grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay to his vineyards. His vision to produce terroir driven single-vineyard wines keeps Gaja's wines on the short list of Italy's finest.
