Faint memories of the wine that night but remember I didn’t like it too much. Smell pretty wild and didn’t have the nose that I associate with Nebbiolo. Need to taste again.

Wines from regions starting with B: Much lighter, prettier red fruit than I expected of Gaja - I thought it would be dominated by oak and dark fruit. Quite Burgundian and surprisingly ready for a 2013 Barolo, very good.

Gaja Tasting (Knightsbridge): Retailer tasting. Lovely perfume-elegant florals and orange rind along with red berry fruit. Very bright. Firm tannin. Cherry and red berry fruit, with spice accents on the finish. Excellent, just incredibly young.

Gaja White Truffle Dinner (Osteria Langhe - Chicago IL): The toughest wine to appreciate tonight. So much here, but the aromas and flavors seem huge but out of sync, and little comes across as harmonious. But clearly so much great material here, telling us to leave it alone for another decade.
