Gaja Barbaresco 2020
Nebbiolo from Barbaresco, Piedmont, Italy
Winemaker Notes
The 2020 Barbaresco shows notes of strawberry, red fruit, and cherry. The palate shows great integration of the tannins, more rounded than in 2019 yet gentle and graceful. Blackberry, orange, and floral notes yield to a delicate, palate, and voluminous finish. The wines are characterized by precise and complex fruit expressions and clean and elegant aromas. They are wines that are already drinkable but will reward with time as the presence of fruit is always a guarantee of aging potential.
James Suckling – 95 Points
So many aromas of fresh rose petals as well as hibiscus tea. Medium-bodied with crunchy and flowery character with sliced strawberries and a bright finish. So appealing with lovely structure. Chewy at the end.
Food Pairing
Pairs well with beef, game and stews such as beefsteak, lamb, veal, rabbit, wild boar and deer.
