Domaine Bousquet Gaia Red Blend NV

Gaia Red and White Blends, named after the Greek Earth Mother goddess, embody a rich tradition of multi-varietal wines sourced from their estate-grown grapes. This Old World practice of blending is rejuvenated with modern, non-classic New World combinations, with the primary grape constituting about 50% of the mix. Originating from Carcassonne in the South of France, the Bousquet family carries a four-generation legacy in winemaking. Their passion for producing high-quality wines led them to Argentina, and it all began with a 1990 vacation. For third-generation winemaker Jean Bousquet, the enchantment was instantaneous, as he fell in love with the Gualtallary Valley. Located in the Tupungato district of Argentina’s Mendoza region, this remote and arid land, close to the Chilean border, was where his dream terroir took root. It was an ideal place for cultivating organic wines. Anne Bousquet, an economist, and her husband Labid Al Ameri, a successful trader, were drawn to this cause. Their shared philosophy on sustainability found an outlet in Domaine Bousquet. After investing in the vineyard and winery, they assumed full ownership of Domaine Bousquet in 2011, continuing the family's legacy of producing exceptional organic wines.
