AboutGaja
Gaja began in Barbaresco in 1859 with Giovanni Gaja and continues through the family’s fifth generation. Angelo and Lucia Gaja work alongside their children Gaia, Rossana and Giovanni, who have taken on regular tasting and decision-making responsibilities while Angelo remains involved in viticulture. From its Piedmont base, the family expanded to Pieve Santa Restituta in Montalcino, Ca’Marcanda in Bolgheri and the Idda partnership on Mount Etna. Across those distinct estates, long family memory is paired with experimentation in varieties, vineyards and responses to climate.
