‘Angelo Gaja…says it’s all very well to have your nose in the glass but what’s outside the glass is equally important.’ — Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za

Wine Cellar recently held an exclusive event with Italy’s most influential producer, Angelo Gaja. The event began with a 90-minute presentation, followed by a tasting of some of Gaja’s most acclaimed wines, and finished off with a 3-course lunch paired with Gaja wine.

Angelo Gaja’s presentation and tasting offered all those who attended the occasion the chance to hear, first-hand, of his journey through artisanal winemaking, the effects of climate change on viniculture, and how he continues to engage both his ‘heart and soul’ in order to survive these challenging times.

Christian Eedes, editor of the online wine magazine, Winemag.co.za, was one of the event’s attendees. Read more about his experience in his recently published article, ‘A Day With Angelo Gaja’.
