Barbaresco 1989, Gaja
Angelo Gaja, a legend in his lifetime and the producer of the Gaja Barbaresco 1989 which is expertly blended from 100 percent Nebbiolo grape to provide a bouquet of red fruit. Dry with a satisfying palate, this outstanding red wine is an excellent choice to accompany beef, lamb, game and pasta cuisine.
Langhe Sperss 1997, Gaja
The Gaja Langhe Sperss 1997 is expertly blended from the Nebbiolo grape to provide an earthy and fruity aroma. A superb Sperss, with refined aromas of minerals, flowers, berries and just a hint of mint. Full-bodied and powerful, with chewy tannins and a long berry, cherry and mineral aftertaste. Impressive structure. This red wine is an excellent choice to accompany beef, lamb, game and pasta cuisine. Best after 2005. 2,000 cases made. Gaja was never a great sustainer of the thesis that Barbaresco/Barolo should be 100 per cent Nebbiolo. In the late 1990s, Gaja decided to re-classify his Barolos, Sperss and Conteisa, as Langhe Nebbiolo DOC, which permits an addition of 15% of other grapes recommended or authorized for the province of Cuneo (could be Barbera or Cabernet Sauvignon; Gaja claims the former).
Barolo Sperss 1990, Gaja
