Originating in and still based in Barbaresco, in northwest Italy, the Gaja name remains most strongly associated with Nebbiolo-based wines, though the company now makes more wine in Tuscany than Piedmont. The business was founded in 1859 by Giovanni Gaja with just two hectares (five acres) of vineyards in Barbaresco. Each generation saw expansion, although Angelo Gaja, who took over full-time in 1970, is often credited with the estate's more recent success. He was responsible for overseeing sweeping changes in the vineyards and cellars, and introducing the famed single-vineyard Barbaresco wines Sorì San Lorenzo, Sorì Tildìn, and Costa Russi (now Langhe DOC wines). These changes were not always well-received: famously, the name of the Darmagi Cabernet Sauvignon translates as 'what a pity', referring to Angelo's father's regret over the introduction of Bordeaux varieties. In 1994, Gaja took over the 27 hectare (67 acre) Pieve Santa Restituta estate in Montalcino, followed by the 118 hectare (290 acre) Ca' Marcanda estate in Bolgheri. The name of this estate, acquired after protracted negotiations, translates as 'House of Haggling'. Although Angelo Gaja has never announced his retirement, the company is run in conjunction with daughters Gaia and Rossana.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-17T13:09:35-05:00","created_at":"2023-01-14T14:18:07-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Italy","LK1301","other_italian wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Gaja","Region_Piedmont","Source_CanaWine0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Nebbiolo"],"price":69899,"price_min":69899,"price_max":69899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42679808852106,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2008 | Gaja | Sori San Lorenzo","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":69899,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/41_11586bd5-2025-4195-9a90-b1f6b775f1fb.png?v=1673723999"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/41_11586bd5-2025-4195-9a90-b1f6b775f1fb.png?v=1673723999","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2008 | Gaja | Sori San Lorenzo at CaskCartel.com","id":23972942315658,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.434,"height":592,"width":257,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/41_11586bd5-2025-4195-9a90-b1f6b775f1fb.png?v=1673723999"},"aspect_ratio":0.434,"height":592,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/41_11586bd5-2025-4195-9a90-b1f6b775f1fb.png?v=1673723999","width":257}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2008 | Gaja | Sori San Lorenzo\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep red in color, with highly concentrated aromas of currant and black cherry fruit with a hint of coffee.
