Gaja Gaia & Rey Langhe 2021
The 2021 Gaja Gaia & Rey is a powerhouse Chardonnay from a classic, balanced Piedmontese growing season. While the previous year was solar and broad, the 2021 is celebrated for its vibrant tension, precision, and crystalline acidity, making it one of the most age-worthy releases in recent years.
James Suckling
Always a fantastic chardonnay with apple pie, nougat, vanilla, and flint aromas and flavors. Hints of salted caramel. Medium to full body with racy acidity and bright fruit. Complex and lively. Tight and reserved at the end. Needs time to open. Try after 2024.
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Reticent at first, this Chardonnay needs a few moments to develop in the glass, but as it does, delicate white aromatic flowers lift from the glass, accompanied by the scent of freshly cut, perfectly ripe apples. Notes of apricot, oak spice, and a hint of lemon verbena cream lift from the glass as it opens. Elegant on the palate, the wine has body, but the vibrant acidity provides a clean and focused texture, revealing tart citrus notes of lemon zest and bitter orange that lead to a salty and textured finish.
