Lot 323 GAJA
For five generations, the Gaja family has been producing wines in Piemonte’s Langhe hills. Founded in 1859, the family estate is managed today by Angelo Gaja, his wife Lucia, and their children Gaia, Rossana and Giovanni. The winery produces wines only from its owned vineyards, managed by a long-standing and full time employed team, in synergy with different researchers, from botanicals to entomologists.
Vine growing as well as wine making is inspired by the respect for nature and its times: each vineyard is considered as a precious independent organism, a universe to be explored, understood and protected in order to express it fully in the wine.
“We should always and only buy large formats, not only they age longer but also they symbolize generosity, they suggest that we shall surround our lives with friends, and they remind us to “go for it”! 2013 in Barolo and 2014 in Barbaresco have been both splendid vintages, marked by harmony, complexity and a great longevity. The distinctive character of Sperss benefits from the remarkable elegance and delicacy of the 2013 vintage, while the 2014 vintage enhances Sorì Tildin and Sorì San Lorenzo's vibrancy, freshness and full-structure.” Gaia Gaja
