Tiefgründiger Barolo: Rubinrot, intensives Bouquet von reifen Beeren und Früchten, dazu etwas Teer, am Gaumen sehr druckvoll und sehr komplex nach Kirschen und Gewürzen. Von eleganter Struktur mit perfekt ausgeglichenem Tanningerüst präsentiert er sich als ein überaus beeindruckender Wein. Ein echter Gaja eben! (superiore.de)

"Funkelndes Rubin. Zunächst etwas verhaltene Nase, nach Schießpulver, dann viel Sauerkirsche. Straffes Tannin, baut sich schön auf, überaus saftig, im Finale fest und zupackend." Falstaff

"The 2006 Langhe Conteisa is a beautifully firm, transparent wine endowed with expressive red fruits, menthol, flowers and licorice. The 2006 is decidedly more reticent than the 2007, but it shows tons of harmony, length and class. The finish is utterly seductive." Robert Parker

"The 2007 Langhe Conteisa is impeccably ripe and silky on the palate, with expressive La Morra red fruits, flowers, mint and spices that emerge from the glass. This is another soft, seamless wine from Gaja, with gorgeous purity in the fruit that carries through all the way to the deeply satisfying, creamy finish. The tannins remain impeccably refined and beautifully balanced with the fruit. The wine is likely to firm up a touch in bottle, but it should be one of the most accessible of Gaja’s 2007s. The 2007 is easily among the finest Conteisas ever made." Robert Parker

"Blueberry and lemon aromas follow through to a full body, with firm and racy tannins and a delicate finish. This is refined and polished." James Suckling

"Glänzendes, sattes Rubin mit leichtem Granatschimmer. Tolle und einprägsame Nase, ungeheuer dicht, duftet nach Haselnüssen, Leder und reifen Waldhimbeeren. Trumpft am Gaumen toll auf, viel kompaktes, dichtmaschiges Tannin, ummantelt von süßem Schmelz, vielschichtig und dicht, baut sich lange auf, im Nachhall nach Zwetschgen und Lakritze."

"The 2007 Langhe Sperss is beyond impeccable in the way it combines a powerful expression of Serralunga fruit in a round, enveloping style. Make no mistake about it, there is plenty of intensity and muscle here, but in 2007 Sperss is exceptionally harmonious from the start. The fruit is decidedly darker than the red-toned Conteisa, while an array of licorice, smoke and iron – all typical of Serralunga – add further gravitas. Even as the tannins build on the close, here, too, the finish is utterly sublime. The 2007 Sperss will test readers’ patience but it is simply magnificent even today. Readers who can wait will be rewarded with a breathtaking bottle of wine." Robert Parker

"A subtle intensity on the nose of tar, dark fruits and chocolate with hints of wet earth. Full bodied, with super polished tannins that caress the palate. Spices, berries and lightly toasted oak change to hazelnut and dark fruits. Very approachable now but so much more to offer with age. Wonderful length and class. Harmony." James Suckling

Der 2004er Langhe 'Conteisa', von Weinbergen in La Morra, ist besonders dunkel getönt, reichhaltig und in einem für diesen Wein opulenten Stil. Ein prächtiger Wein aus hervorragendem Stammbaum. (superiore.de)

"Sattes, dunkles Rubin. Dicht angelegte Nase mit Noten nach Zwetschken, Preiselbeere und etwas Rosen. Sehr tolles Tannin, feinkörnig und mit süßem Kern, sattes Finale." Falstaff

"Offers pronounced aromas of blackberry, with hints of rose. Full-bodied, with fine tannins and a fruity, silky-textured finish. All together and balanced. Surprisingly attractive now." Wine Spectator

"Sori Tildin verbindet den Terroirausdruck der Nebbiolo mit einem seidigen, reichhaltigen Geschmack voller Sinnlichkeit und Kraft." Gambero Rosso 2010

"The 2006 Langhe 'Sori Tildin' opens with a gorgeous, nuanced bouquet that leads to an equally expressive core of ripe, red fruits. This medium-bodied Sori Tildin is the most focussed and energetic of these wines. It offers exceptional length and a refined, polished close. As is often the case, the Sori Tildin is also the most delicate and feminine of the single-vineyard wines." Robert Parker

Eleganz und Kultstatus der Gaja-Weine verkörpert auch der 'Sori San Lorenzo'. (superiore.de)

"The 2006 Langhe 'Sori San Lorenzo' is the most virile of these 2006 Langhes. The wine reveals terrific depth and richness in its dark fruit, smoke, tar, licorice and menthol. The authoritative 'Sori San Lorenzo' offers plenty of excitement and sheer pleasure in an extroverted style. The elegant finish is at once powerful and sublime. Baritone notes of tar, smoke and licorice linger on the close." Robert Parker
