Gaja
The third generation was represented by Giovanni Gaja, Angelo and Clothilde's son, who died in November 2002. He made the barbaresco his figurehead and won with this wine a top position in the Italian market. He enlarged the house Gaja by the additional purchase of the individual layers Sori San Lorenzo, Sori Tildin, Costa Russi and Darmagi and gained with these top locations and the extension of the wine cellar a further qualitative progress.
His son Angelo, the current owner of the estate, represents the fourth generation of the Gaja family. He follows in the footsteps of his father and continues the philosophy of quality, which is why only grapes from their own vineyards are used for the winemaking. In 1961 he joined the company and has since successfully pursued the introduction and distribution of Barbaresco in foreign markets. He lives in Barbaresco with his wife Lucia, who supports him together with the two daughters Gaia and Rossana. Today, the Gaja family owns 100 hectares of vineyards around Barbaresco and Barolo.
