The Máté winery, an organic family-owned and run estate, nestles on two small hills in the temperate, seaward zone in the prestigious Santa Restituta area, home to Gaja and Case Basse. A Roman vineyard 2,000 years ago, the seven campi of marvelously varied terroir totaling 7 hectares are surrounded by Mediterranean woods, herbs and wild fruit. The vineyards were designed by Fabrizio Moltard, Angelo Gaja’s agronomist, and the clones chosen by France’s Pierre Guillaume.
