fine wine 👑
DESCRIPTION
Gaja & Rey is a pure Chardonnay that releases elegance and refinement. Dedicated to the ladies of the house, Gaja comes from a historic vineyard that seems almost lost in the middle of the Nebbiolo land. Absolute myth and noble wine.
BARBARESCO (CN)
The grapes come from vines whose average age is around 40 years of age, and, after being carefully selected during the harvest phase, they are fermented in barrique.
The refinement phase is first carried out for 12 months in barrique and, after bottling, for another 6 months directly in the bottle.
It manifests itself to the eye with a straw yellow color, with light reflections tending to gold. The aromas that are perceived on the nose are different, with notes that go from fruit to flowers, with a hint also of sweet spices. The taste is of excellent structure, delicate, with a sip in which freshness and flavor contribute to making the drink extremely smooth; it ends with a really noteworthy persistence.

CELLAR
The history of this dynasty began in 1859 when the great-great-grandfather Giovanni founded the historic winery in Barbaresco, since then Gaja has remained synonymous with quality. Great-grandmother Clotilde Rey encouraged Angelo, the second generation of the family, to focus on quality production as early as the early 900s, when times imposed that economic rigor that led to making quantity the watchword of many producers, as he continues. to happen in our times, by the way. In 1961, on his debut in the company, Angelo, the fourth generation of the family, pioneered the enhancement of Barbaresco in the world. He was the first to understand that exports were the winning card for Italian wine: by offering his product on the American market, he began the great climb of his cellar. Today this reality has 100 hectares of vineyards in Piedmont and more than 200 in Tuscany, thus combining Piedmontese production with the most renowned Tuscan wines, Brunello di Montalcino in the lead. The oenologist Guido Rivella is the soul of all the wines of the Gaja family. Tonight's extraordinary tasting, led by an ever-great Guido Invernizzi, begins with a splendid champagne and ends with a Calvados, passing through Montalcino, Reinghau and obviously arriving in Barbaresco.
