Flying Solo Red
Description: | We celebrate the pioneering aviators of the famous Aeropostale who risked all to deliver the first mail from France to Barcelona in 1918. Then North Africa, and eventually even South America. These intrepid pilots flew solo from Toulouse, using our very own Tree of Moscou (LArbre de Moscou) as a key visual reference. Domaine Gayda is Flying Solo to deliver you our wines of exceptional quality and value from this enterprising region of France. Share on printPrintShare on emailSend.
