Gaja, Gaia & Rey Vintage:2018 The restrained and markedly cool

The restrained and markedly cool nose displays an impressive variety of floral and spice hints that add a sense of elegance to the stunningly complex ripe dark berry fruit and plum aromas

There is excellent volume but also fine precision to the well-detailed

This vintage represents the 20th anniversary of this wine (the first vintage produced was 1992) although this special single-vineyard has been in family hands since 1435 (you read that correctly)

but couldn’t have asked for better teachers than Angelo and Lucia Gaja

Gaja, Gaia & Rey Vintage:2018 The restrained and markedly coolBright yellow. More reticent on the nose than the 2007, hinting at stone fruits and toast. Gives a sweeter impression on entry, then turns a bit more clenched in spite of its fleshiness and inherent pliancy, showing considerable power and structure. A classically dry, broad chardonnay with flavors of pear and peach pit complicated by well integrated toasty oak.
