2001 Gaja Langhe Nebbiolo Sorì TildìnLanghe DOC more |
5/20/2022 - tropa56 Does not like this wine: 90 pointsIf I could buy these bottles at the price I paid for them upon release, I still wouldn't. These wines from Gaja are incredibly over priced and over rated in my opinion. I do like there straight Barbaresco on occasion but I have honestly never been impressed with any of their single vineyard crus. I especially have issues with the era in which they blended the 5% Barbera into the single vineyard bottlings. The 2001 Sori Tildin was soft and velvety in the mouth, but lacked complexity and was lackluster. The Barbera is prevalent and distracting to me and I would imagine other true lovers of Barolo and Barbaresco. |

3/8/2024 - Whitman wrote: 93 pointsReally exciting nose with black cherries, leather and a note of perfume. Pure, nothing sticks out here like all great wines. At times almost like silk, before a medium finish kicks in with nice structure and dryness. Tasted at release where the impression was the same, although it has gained power and structure. Just wished for a little more of everything to be exceptional. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

12/16/2023 - heathenone@msn.com Likes this wine: 93 pointsAt Millenium Dinner in Santa Barbara at Bouchon. Wonderful aromatics, pallet, and flavors. Will do fine to hold for future. Not going anywhere quickly. 3 hour double decant, then tasted over one hour. Continued to open and be more expressive over the hour in the glass. |

12/30/2023 - ovenmitt wrote: 91 pointsDrank w/Steve Polly at Asti. Table decant for 30 minutes. Hollow mid palate and not showing much on the nose. Lacking depth and breadth. Started to open a bit more towards the end of our meal - classic Nebbiolo. Still seems way too young and if drinking now a MUCH longer decant. Wait 3-5 for remaining bottles. Upside to age much longer. |

12/8/2023 - Nutty08 Likes this wine: 94 pointsSolid and well made, but didn't stand out in a crowded tasting. Typical Barbaresco profile, but has a lightness and elegance on the palate that stepped up from the norm. everything in the right place, with lovely floral aromatics adding an herbal note. Tannins in check and quite polished (this is still Nebbiolo, it's tannic). A cerebral wine, may have shown better in a more in depth setting. |

10/13/2023 - Nanda wrote: 96 pointsSingle blind 89 Gaja Horizontal. Wow, stop you in your tracks good and a stand out tonight. Full, rich nose has a myriad of aromas ranging from pure red and black cherry, plums, spice, florals, wood and smoke. Palate is so decadent and rich yet precise and long. Sure this has some polish, but it's otherwise classic in every way. WOTN. |

10/13/2023 - acyso wrote: 95 pointsBarbaresco vs. Barolo (Chicago, IL): Served single blind. Absolutely brilliant. Mature, but still on an upwards trajectory. Effusive nose of nebbiolo florals and red fruit. Ample weight on the palate without the feeling of heaviness at all. There's a coolness to the fruit which alongside the acidity provide that necessary lift. None of the high-tonedness I'd expect from Sperss either -- this was clearly one of the single-vineyard Barbaresco bottlings. |

9/23/2023 - godx wrote: 93 pointsOpened approx 8-9 hours before serving. Booming nose right out of the gate. Classic Nebbiolo notes (bright cherries, tar) and some oak but a touch coiled up on the palate. With more time in the glass this continued to get better and the palate really blossomed. I love the balance of silky/polished without going to modern/glossy that Gaja seems to do so well. This has more density and weight on the palate compared to the leaner Produttori. Certainly on the youthful side but this has entered its early drinking window and should continue to develop and drink well for several decades. Air won’t hurt this if drinking now. |

8/18/2023 - indiscriminate palate wrote: NRThis has such unbelievably silky structure, especially with lots of air, with tannins very present but so soft and the medium-high acidity lingering for a full minute. On the palate, berries, chocolate, dried flowers, some woodiness the nose and palate aren’t blowing me away but the structure and mouthfeel make this an excellent wine. |

Full weight, acidity and tannin support but are well covered by the wonderful fruit. Long, complex. Drinking perfectly now. I think it is as good as its ever going to be, so drink and enjoy! |
