Above: Each one of the Gaja wineries is also home to an art collection. I snapped the above image in the foyer of the Piedmont cellar the last time I tasted there.
The following post recently came to my attention: Angelo Gaja’s vintage notes 1958-2011, anecdotes, insights, and reflections (many in hindsight).
I can’t conceal that I found it to be a fascinating document and I wanted to share it here.
I read these with a lot of interest. Thanks for the link, Jeremy.
I was impressed by his candor and the way he sees that media and marketing have influenced our perceptions of different historic vintages.
So fascinating. Love his comments on ’97 vs. ’98.
