It comes from the Gaia & Rey vineyard, which was planted in 1979 and was one of Piedmont's first Chardonnay vineyards. It is named for Angelo's daughter, Gaia, and his grandmother, Clotilde Rey. 100% Chardonnay. Straw yellow in color, this wine has a rich nose, with hints of toast and vanilla as well as aromas of citrus fruit. On the palate, it is full-bodied, with concentrated, ripe fruit balanced by lively acidity.
