  August 26, 2023 - The 2015 Gaja Barbaresco resembles a young Pinot more than Nebbiolo. Medium ruby in colour, heavy on dark red and purple fruit aromas with some reductive notes as well. This strange reductive fruitiness while completely normal and even pleasant is not what I would expect of a top quality Nebbiolo from Barbaresco.
  While the wine is really good per se, imvho it can’t be considered among the finest representatives of it’s region.

  May 17, 2021 - A perfectly nice wine but definitely not worth the money. Elegant it certainly is - disappointingly light body, no real substance or power, for this one need to go to the amazing single vineyards. People buy to try a piece of Gaja - but this falls short of what he is all about. Mainly red fruits, medium structure, all in balance, just nothing special. short and straightforward. Drink now and over the next 10 years.
