Gaja Barbaresco Sori Tildin 2016 750ml

The 2016 Barbaresco Sori Tildìn is a fabulous, incredibly complete wine that soars out of the glass with explosive structure and vertical lift. The tannins are very much present, but also matched beautifully by the wine’s aromatic intensity and overall drive. Dark macerated cherry, spice, leather, licorice, plum and mocha add darker shades of nuance. In 2016, Sori Tildin is a bit more brooding and bigger than it often is, and yet all the elements are impeccably balanced. It is quite simply a majestic wine of real grandeur and total class, but it is not obvious. Sori Tildin will appeal most to readers who understand what the truest essence of Nebbiolo is all about. In a word: magnificent!
