Sorì San Lorenzo
Through the 1995 vintage, the Gaja single vineyard Sorì San Lorenzo was labeled as Barbaresco. However, starting with 1996 Gaja formally chose to eschew the requirements for Barbaresco DOCG in favor of the more humble Langhe DOC (for example by blending Barbera and Cabernet Sauvignon into the wines when only Nebbiolo is allowed in Barbaresco DOCG). What this means is that these wines are defined two ways with 1995 and older as Barbaresco and 1996 and newer as Langhe DOC.
