This week’s episode is a juicy one featuring – no hyperbole here – the amazing Gaia Gaja. Gaja is Barbaresco’s most famous winery and Gaia is the fifth generation of her family to run it. Her father, Angelo Gaia, is the man credited with changing the Italian wine scene forever, but make no mistake, Gaia is very much her own person. Funny, passionate and intelligent, she talks to me about gelato, climate change, Etna, the differences between Nebbiolo and Sangiovese and why she communicates with her father by letter rather than in person.
