1970 Gaja Barbaresco

Community Tasting Note

Does not like this wine:

93 Points

Thursday, January 25, 2024 - The nose on this is WILD. Tobacco, dry cherry, cut wood, mushroom, leather, smoke. It doesn’t really smell like wine anymore. The palate is very very smoky, in a good way. Like smoked meat off a pitmaster’s pit. At the same time it is light and elegant but the fruit is mostly gone. I’m not sure I could drink a whole bottle (well I could but look at how expensive it is) but a glass would be nice. 10ml was not really enough. Very interesting wine.
