Note di degustazione
I do not taste a lot of Italian wines. But this is clearly one of the best Italian wines I've ever tasted! This has the right amount of everything. The complex nose, with its stone, tobacco, cassis, blackberry, earth and spicy character is stunning. On the palate, the wine coats your taste buds with its richly textured, layers of fat, juicy, intense, ripe and flavor packed berries. Served blind, I was knocked out.

The nose of plums, strawberries and flowers come out vividly to almost perfection. It follows through to a full body with firm and tight tannins. Finish is full of hazelnuts and chocolate. Intense and long. Salty finish. The depth and intensity is amazing yet it's refined and so polished. Leaves me spellbound. Better after 2015.
Always a standout among Gaja's five single-vineyard wines, Sorì San Lorenzo benefits from an excellent vintage to produce what will surely become a must-have bottle for collectors of Italian wine. There's enormous beauty and elegance here, backed by power and intensity with ripe fruit, spice, toasted nut and cola. It also shows impressive linearity and focus. Hold for 10 years or more.
A rich, sumptuous red, tasting in turn like sweet spices, smoke, toast, blackberry, plum and licorice. These notes unravel in layers, matched to a dense texture and finely meshed tannins. Combining grace and power, this resonates on the finish, with cherry, spice and mineral notes. Best from 2014 through 2035. 80 cases imported.
