2019 Gaja Barbaresco DOCG from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Independent 97 points, Falstaff Magazine 96 points, The Wine Advocate 95 points, Wine Spectator 95 points. This is the tasting note for 2019 Gaja Barbaresco DOCG from Robert Parker - Gaja did not make its cru wines from Barbaresco (like Sorì San Lorenzo) in 2019 because the vineyards suffered repercussions one year after severe hail storms struck in 2018. Because of the irregularity found across the various sites, the best fruit was carefully selected and put into this wine instead. The 2019 Barbaresco is striking and beautiful as a result, with enormous depth and clarity. This is a generous wine with ample structure, lots of vibrant acidity, sweet tannins and a bright core of primary fruit. Gaia Gaja tells me that she considers 2018 to be more structured and vertical.
