Gaja - Barolo Langhe Sperss 2020 (5L)
Jeb Dunnuck: 98 Points
The 2020 Barolo Sperss is a bright red color and reveals an incredibly floral profile of rose petals and ripe strawberries. Aromatically light on its feet, with a joyous feel, on the palate the structure is more focused and compact, with mineral undertones that weave through with more a defined nature. It needs more time, but this is a fantastic red to drink over the coming 30 years.
James Suckling: 97 Points
Very spiced with deep, dark earth and forest aromas of black truffles, bark, mushrooms, licorice and iodine. Full-bodied and very reserved, with a linear and racy palate that goes on for minutes. Gunpowder highlights to the dark fruit and forest floor character. Structured. Try after 2028.
Wine Spectator: 96 Points
Reduced aromas are earthy, with flashes of cherry and raspberry fruit. The flavors are fresh and lively, with fine precision and a tightly wound structure boosting the notes of cherry, raspberry, iron, tobacco and underbrush. The excellent length on the mineral-infused finish indicates this wine’s future potential. Best from 2029 through 2050.
