Classic, nuanced, and elegant, this single-vineyard expression in Gaja’s cru Barbaresco trio—the second to be bottled individually in 1970—owns these terms, and often embodies them, carrying itself across the palate with graceful deportment and refinement. Of the three Gaja single-vineyard Barbaresco wines, Sorì Tildin displays the roundest tasting profile, with a rich body, subtle texture, and fine, ripe tannins; in great vintages this wine will develop for decades. Sour cherries, violets, petrichor, toast and rich, spiced fruit comprise the customary profile for this gorgeously structured wine.
- Country: Italy
- Region: Piemonte
- Subregion/Appellation: Langhe Rosso
While rooted in the tradition of the Langhe, Angelo Gaja recognizes the Nebbiolo grape’s inherent flexibility that allows it to bend to the market’s desire for both oak-driven and tannic styles. Gaja has enriched this foundation with an open-minded sensibility that marries traditional practices and technological innovation, thereby extending Piemonte’s international reach. Gaja’s wines are among the world’s most acclaimed and sought-after bottlings. Gaja’s wines appreciate, trading at premium prices and invariably elevating the price standard in Piemonte, where Gaja’s primary 250-acre estate is located in the Barbaresco and Barolo districts. Striking, profound and age-worthy, Gaja's wines display opulence and elegance. When collectors consider Italian wines for their cellar, Gaja is one of the first names they purchase, and for good reason. Gaja is the gold standard.
