Langhe ‘Gaia & Rey’ Chardonnay 2020
Gaja, Barbaresco
Giovanni Gaja established his winery in 1859 and is
currently managed by his great-grandson Angelo.
Particularly known for their production of Barbaresco
and Barolo, Gaja also produces other wines such as
Brunello and Super Tuscans. The names of their cuvées
tend to have all sorts of historic, genetic or linguistic
reference. Cuvée Gaia & Rey is the winery’s first white
wine, 100% Chardonnay and harvested from the
vineyard with the same name. Gaia refers to Angelo’s
oldest daughter, while Rey refers to his grandmother’s
surname.
Toscane IGP 100% Sangiovese 2019
Case Basse di Gianfranco Soldera, Montalcino
Gianfranco and his wife Graziella purchased the Case
Basse estate in August 1972. 1975 marked their first
vintage and the first Brunello was sold in 1982. Soldera
only produces 100% Sangiovese wines with grapes from
its own vineyards. The labels of the wines were designed
by international acclaimed artists and resonate with their
eccentricity. As of the 2006 vintage, released in 2013, the
wine is known under its current name. Gianfranco argues
his best vintage was that of 1979, while he deemed the
1989 not worthy of production.
