GaiaVnyd In SRH??

by TomHill » Thu Mar 12, 2009 4:15 pm

Was looking at my (old) StaRitaHills vnyd map for TurnerVnyd (just behind Babcock) and noted there was a (fairly large) Gaia vnyd just west and across the hwy from Clos Pepe. Can anyone tell me anything about this vnyd?? What's planted there (Pinot I presume). Where the grapes go to. Owner.

Either way the wine is probably too alcoholic and dark. (Just kidding.)

Gaia used to be Ashley's. I think it is now owned by Foley. The ususal suspects still get grapes from Ashley's ... ahem, I mean Gaia.

I believe Tantara made a "Gaia" vineyard pinot noir in 2005.
I don't know if they are still getting grapes from that site.

Cheers!
