Triple I: Gaia Gaja in conversation with Jamie Goode

The latest Italian Imaginative Innovators (Triple I) meeting held at the Embassy of Italy featured Gaia Gaja, of the Gaja wineries, who spoke to Jamie Goode, a renowned British food-and-wine critic.

The Gaja wineries, established in 1859 in Barbaresco in the Piedmont region, are today an institution in Italian winemaking.
Gaja told Goode that her family’s motto was “Do it, know how to do it, know how to get it done, and pass on the know-how”. She also shared some of the innovations in the pipeline for Italian winemaking.

In his opening address, Ambassador Raffaele Trombetta observed that Gaja has successfully combined tradition and innovation and is leading the way in Europe and around the world with a project focusing on eco-compatible, sustainable production.

Goode, a great supporter of natural wine-production and environmental sustainability, concluded with a question that sums up Italian winemaking: “When do we call a wine ‘natural’? Simply when we add nothing to it.”
