2014 Gaja Sperss Langhe - Barolo 750ml

Vintages of this wine between 1996 and 2013 are labelled Langhe Nebbiolo DOC. Critic tasting note: (2014 vintage) "Underbrush, tobacco, toasted hazelnut, menthol and grilled herb aromas slowly take shape on this focused red. On the structured elegant palate, taut refined tannins and fresh acidity provide an ageworthy framework for raspberry compote, juicy Marasca cherry, orange zest, white pepper and star anise. It already has layers of depth and loads of finesse, but hold for even more complexity. Drink 2022–2030. Kerin O’Keefe" - 95/100, Wine Enthusiast Drinking Window: 2019-2045
