    October 19, 2018 - FWG Lunch with Gaia Gaja (Ai Fiori Restaurant in the Langham Place Hotel, NYC): [Double-decanted at 10am.] Gorgeous nose of caramel cherries. Expansive in the mouth. Medium length. Wow! Still full of life, but no reason to wait.

    November 23, 2011 - Gaja Barolo 61 – blanding av marine toner (som strand, sjø osv) og litt brunt sukker, røffere enn 67 Barbaresco. Denne vinen er kommet en god del lengre enn 67 og har lite sekundærfrukt igjen. Fortsatt en veldig bra flaske, som kommer fra samme kjeller som 67. Som dere ser blir det mye snakk om 67, og det var kveldens vin. Synes også flasken var bedre. Fortsatt fløyel anslag, men en robust struktur. Blir vell unødvendig å si at den var kompleks. 96-97p
