Gaja 2007 Sorì Tildìn Nebbiolo (Langhe)

Cellar Selection

Price $440

This is an elegant Nebbiolo-based wine and arguably the most feminine of Gaja’s newest releases. There’s extreme balance and sophistication evident in the focused aromas of wild berry, white licorice, pressed violets and polished stone. The mouthfeel is tight, firm and those tannins need at least 10 more years to soften in your cellar. Beautiful. — M.L. (5/1/2011)
