Gaja Barbaresco Sorì San Lorenzo 2015

The substantial tannin structure feels almost austere at this stage, masking the site's typical mineral elegance. Raw power is evident, but the wine's components remain disjointed. This needs serious cellaring to find its voice. Whether it develops into classic Sorì San Lorenzo grace or remains a more muscular expression remains to be seen.

Gaja

Gaja is Barbaresco's most recognizable name globally, built on single-vineyard Nebbiolo from Sorì San Lorenzo, Sorì Tildìn, and Costa Russi, alongside a Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc that remain outliers in the region.
