Gaja - Grappa 'Gaia & Rey' (750ml)
Gaja Description
Located in Piedmont in northwestern Italy, the GAJA winery is widely considered to be one of the greatest estates in the world, producing coveted and collectible labels. GAJA is a pioneer and guardian of tradition, a legacy that continues to reshape the standard for excellence in the world of winemaking today. Angelo Gaja was the first to produce single vineyard wines in Piedmont and revolutionized wine making practices in the region, introducing Bordeaux varietals and the use of barriques. GAJA has led Barbaresco to international acclaim and brought about a resurgence of Italian wines more broadly. Today, the GAJA Winery owns 240 acres of vineyards in the Barbaresco DOCG (Barbaresco and Treiso) and the Barolo DOCG (Serralunga d’Alba and La Morra).
Grapes sourced from the Gaia & Rey vineyards in the commune of Treiso and Serralunga d’Alba. Grappa Gaia & Rey is meticulously produced from the pomace of the Chardonnay grapes.
Tasting Note: Crystal clear with herbaceous varietal aromas, warm and inviting. On the palate, it is full and round, with spicy notes that are accentuated in the long, lingering finish.
