    IRK! At the end I honestly thought 20 minutes had passed. I was even a little disappointed that the cast wasn't longer when the guest was this engaging. Upon inspection, I was baffled that it had been 50 minutes.

    What a cool lady. The interview is so jam-packed with interesting perspectives and information, I'm going to have to watch it again. It felt like she's the future of wine in a way. My favourite interview so far. She even got a kick out of the hat :D More wine women please. Let the search continue!

    Great podcast! Gaia Gaja seems like very knowledgeable wine maker. The podcast was really interesting to watch, full with inside information of the wine making processes. I love Gaja wines. Today I had the GAJA Alteni di Brasica 2020, and it was amazing. GAYA AND RAY is fantastic as well but very hard to find. I wonder how many bottles do they make of each wine. Is there public info about that? Good work with this podcast!

    For all the people living in Barbaresco like me, Angelo Gaja has been a stunning personality and a pioneer for the wine world. I share the view of Gaia Gaja on how much Barbaresco producers have grown, delivering top quality and terroir driven wines.

    Hi Agnes , i want to limit my budget to buy too much wine before i can drink it all . I keep buying because of curiousness with the other varieties. i know the taste is about personal preference . I just want to hear it from the wine expert at least she has tried many kind of wines. what are the top 5 type of red wines and top 3 type of white wines that you liked the most. thank your for you replay in advance.

    AT the end 9f the day, Agnes, i am a Little bit disappoined by the decision from mrs Gaia not to join the family of Alta Langa wine producers. Since Alta Langa from my prospettive Is the top quality Piemonte bubbles, It 8s more than Natural that Gaja family shall consume this perfect marriage. I already can Imagine a beautyfull champagne like bottle with a label with Golden words Gaja Alta Langa . To me the movement of bubbles there Is waiting for the big name to boost the brand Miles further. What Isyour opinion Agnes?😁
