  Giacosa/ Gaja 1990s Comparison and Dinner (Ballaro - Highwood IL): Fully mature and ripe apple with good power and length. Would have been better 3-5 years ago.

  Gaja / Giacosa Dinner (Ballaro, Highwood, IL): Nose here is full and powerful though simple and non-delineated. Palate is a bit flat as the spritz is losing intensity. Ripe and round, with just enough acid to keep it from being flabby. At the tail end of its serviceable drinking window.

  Clear with a medium mousse. Dry and assringent with little fruitor yeastiness. The equivalent of a low to medium quality NV Champagne. A bit dissappointing given the repute of the producer. I will wait another five years to see if this settles down and smooths out.

  (Alana's) Nice. Did really well w/ a roasted tomatillo gazpacho and buster crab, but a solid body with some unbashed (but mild) sweetness made this work very well as a general aperitif. Nice fruit notes in there too.
