Vingården Gaja blev grundlagt i 1859 og Angelo Gaja der fortsat driver det (sammen med datteren) kom ind i familieforetagendet i 1961. I vinhistoriebøgerne er det ikke vanskeligt at finde at Elio Altare og Angelo Gaja er blandt de mest betydningsfulde innovative revolutionerende personligheder i Piemonte i forbindelse med vinproduktion baseret på nebbiolo. Gaja med oprindelse i Barbaresco råder idag over ca. 100 ha vinmarker i Piemonte (stadig primært Barbaresco) og 80 ha vinmarker i Toscana. Gajas to toscanske vingårde Pieve Santa Restituta (brunello) og Ca Marcanda (Supertoscaner) er også at finde i 2100Happiness sortiment. Angelo Gajas vine er dyre - ca. en håndfuld er blandt Italiens dyreste vine - de er også en vinøs oplevelse udover det sædvanlige til særlige anledninger.

The 2013 Barolo Conteisa is now officially a DOCG wine following years as a Langhe Nebbiolo or IGT wine. The first vintage was 1996 and fruit is sourced from the Cerequio cru in La Morra. This is a classic and coherent expression that is characterized by crunchy fruit flavors and sweet tannins. Fruit came into the winery at very low temperatures and saw slow fermentations. Generally speaking, the 2013 vintage is characterized by slow ripening and a long growing season (unlike 2012 that saw more concentrated heat). This is a balanced and homogenous wine with a softly caressing nature. It offers aromas of citrus, summer fruit and even a touch of watermelon pulp. This wine is usually considered the more immediate of Gaja's two new Barolo wines, yet this vintage surely needs extra time to evolve.

The 2013 Conteisa is unusually dark and virile in this vintage. Black cherry, smoke, licorice, leather and melted road tar give the Conteisa much of its dark, brooding personality. That impression is reinforced by the wine's imposing tannic structure and overall feel. Conteisa is typically a wine more of finesse than power, but the 2013 vintage seems to have pulled out a more virile expression of this site. I suspect the 2013 is going to need a good few years in the cellar, perhaps more, to be at its very best.
