Gaja wines have long been an integral part of Made in Italy, a recognisable brand and object of desire for all wine lovers. Angelo Gaia is a star on the world wine scene. A producer who is credited with having transformed not only the image and international reputation of his Piedmont region, but also that of Italy. He has greatly influenced the processes of grape growing, winemaking, distribution and marketing. Gaia is one of the few brands able to compete with the best producers in Bordeaux and Burgundy in both quality and price. The Gaja family settled in Piedmont in the mid-17th century. Five generations have taken turns in wine production since Giovanni Gaja founded the winery in Barbaresco, in the heart of the Langhe, in 1859. Today Gaja owns around 250 hectares of vineyards in the provinces of Tuscany and Piedmont, producing around 350,000 bottles annually.

Description

Gaia & Rey is a great wine known all over the world. Produced by the iconic Piedmontese winery Gaja. It is made from chardonnay grapes grown in the Langhe. It is the first chardonnay planted in Piedmont and the first Italian white wine matured in barriques. The wine is sumptuous, opulent, one of those Chardonnays that are born from large vineyards and then matured in barriques.

Organoleptic characteristics: 

It has a brilliant straw yellow colour. The nose is fragrant and complex with hints of ripe yellow fruit, citrus and vanilla. The palate reveals intensity and persistence, elegant character with mineral notes and lively acidity. It demonstrates an excellent capacity for bottle ageing.
