THE BEST OF ITALIA

GAJA

Piedmont's famed Gaja estate was founded in 1859 and is currently led by fourth generation winemaker Angelo Gaja. After joining the winery in 1961 he has been a driving force behind many of the estate's changes and innovations. Always motivated by the pursuit of quality, one key innovation was the decision to bottle his Sorì San Lorenzo holding seprately for the first time in 1967, closely followed by Sorì Tildìn in 1970 and finally Costa Russi in 1978.
The Gaja family has been settled in the Piedmont region since the middle of the seventeenth century, so it is no wonder that their flagship Barbaresco DOCG and single-vineyard wines are considered by many to be the ultimate expression of Nebbiolo in Piedmont.
