Gaja is one of Italy’s most iconic wine estates, originally founded in 1859 in Barbaresco and renowned for revolutionizing Nebbiolo while expanding into Tuscany with acclaimed estates in Montalcino and Bolgheri. Under Angelo Gaja’s visionary leadership since the 1970s, the winery introduced single-vineyard Barbaresco bottlings like Sorì San Lorenzo and Costa Russi and modernized cellar practices.
