More about this product

Buccella
The 1990 Gaja Boutique meets and predetermines the wine destiny of Bill and Alicia of Buchela, Napa Valley, California. They choose this name of their winery because from Latin it means "full sip" and is an exact association with the multi-layered, density and concentration of their wines, which makes them so luxuriously rich and fragrant. They still keep the cork from their first bottle of wine - proof that their dreams are coming true.

California
California is the largest and most important wine region in the USA, stretching over an impressive ten degrees of latitude, which inevitably offers a variety of climatic and microclimatic conditions, and with the addition of diverse relief - mountains, valleys, plains, and plateaus, it becomes clear that there is indeed an astonishing selection of terroirs here; the state's winemaking history dates back to the 18th century when settlers and missionaries made their way to the western coast, however, California wines gained worldwide fame only in the last few decades - especially after the Paris Judgment of 1976, when in a blind tasting, California representatives won unconditionally against the French in both white and red wines; today, California hosts some of the largest wine companies in the world, as well as some boutique wineries with cult and expensive wines, sought after by connoisseurs and collectors; the main varieties grown in California are Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, but recently wines from Pinot Noir, Merlot, and Syrah have also been successfully established; perhaps the most distinctive and terroir-expressive variety in California (and in the USA as a whole) is Zinfandel (Primitivo in Italy), which has found excellent conditions for development here; the cooler and northern regions, closer to the Atlantic coast (Sonoma), are more suitable for cooling Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, while further inland - Napa - is home to the most famous red wines in California based on Cabernet Sauvignon.

Grenache
Grenache (Garnacha) is a red-wine grape grown extensively in France, Spain, Australia and the United States. Grenache is the French name for the grape, while in Spain it is known as Garnacha, and on the island of Sardinia they call it Cannonau. In France it is most commonly found in the classic Southern Rhone Blend ( it is the main grape variety in Chateauneuf-du-Pape) but also plays a main role in one of southern France's signature Rosè wine style in Provence. In Spain, Garnacha is the key constituent in the prestigious wines of Priorat.
