Gaia Red and Gaia White are named in honor of the Greek earth goddess, “Gaia“–as well they should be. Fully organic in what is already the pristine Gualtallary Valley in Argentina’s Mendoza region, Gaia wines are a product of Domaine Bousquet–a hybrid of French tradition and Argentine terroir.
Domaine Bousquet established its reputation for quality Argentine wines years ago with its Chardonnays, Malbecs, and sparkling wines. With the introduction of the Gaia line of blended wines, Domaine Bousquet adds a new dimension to an already impressive line up. It’s hard to know where you’d find better quality organic and sustainably-grown wines at these prices.
The Kiwis are at it again–more great wine from one of the world’s most beautiful wine regions. The New Zealanders really should include a coupon for a nice juicy New Zealand lamb chop with this Pinot–the herbal/dark cherry flavors and lingering finish of the 2015 Mud House Pinot Noir would harmonize beautifully. A beaut cool-climate pinot for 18.00.
