Heiner Lobenberg om:
Barbaresco Sori Tildin 2017

97-99
/100

Tildin var Angelo Gajas bedstemors kælenavn. Den er blevet aftappet som en enkeltmarksvin siden 1970, hvilket stadig var visionært på det tidspunkt, da de fleste vine i Piemonte var blandinger af forskellige vinmarker. Fra 1996 til 2011 var der omkring 5 % Barbera i cuvéen, og da der kræves 100 % Nebbiolo til Barbaresco DOCG, blev Sori Tildin aftappet under Langhe Nebbiolo DOC i denne periode. Siden 2013-årgangen er den igen ren Nebbiolo og under Barbaresco DOCG. Modnet i 12 måneder på barriques og derefter yderligere 12 måneder på store træfade. En kompleks og dyb vin med en enorm variation af aromaer: vi finder chokolade, espresso, tobak, lakrids og overdådige frugtmasser. Meget koncentreret, hedonistisk og dyb med en lang, fløjlsagtig finish. 97-99/100

Suckling om: Barbaresco Sori Tildin

Extremely perfumed with strawberries, flowers, cherries and hints of ash and tar. Medium to full-bodied with tightness and raciness to the tannins. Polished, too. Very, very persistent. Try after 2022. 98/100

Decanter om: Barbaresco Sori Tildin

Sori Tildin is a lofty south-facing site located above another of Gaja's three single vineyards, Costa Russi. It shows delightful purity of fruit and fragrance on the nose, with lifted and fresh raspberry aromas. Although suave and velvety on the palate, there are robust and assertive tannins beneath the fruit. This has tension and gravitas, more so than Costa Russi in this vintage. Very long. 95/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Barbaresco Sori Tildin

Light ruby hued, the 2017 Barbaresco Sori Tildin is a nuanced, elegant Barbaresco offering lots of beautiful red and subtle blue fruits intermixed with notes of wildflowers, licorice, asphalt, tobacco, and dried spices. Aromatic, incredibly perfumed, and already complex, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, ultra-fine tannins, and a lengthy, seamless finish that carries plenty of salinity and freshness. It's not a blockbuster, but it excels on its purity, freshness, and elegance, and it certainly has enough tannins for a long life. It didn't show at its best until day two, so if you're opening bottles any time soon, a healthy decant is recommended. It will ideally be given 5-7 years of bottle age to hit its early drink window and should evolve for 20+. 95/100

Parker om: Barbaresco Sori Tildin

The Gaja 2017 Barbaresco Sorì Tildìn opens to a luminous ruby appearance with pretty crimson highlights. This vintage appears lighter in color and concentration compared to past editions. The bouquet delivers a purity and sharpness nonetheless, but it offers less overall fruit. It shows subtle berry tones with blue flower, aniseed and candied orange peel. This very young Sorì Tildìn takes time to open, and it remains on the nervous side even after it has been given ample time in the glass. The best course of action is to wait until the 10-year mark before opening this bottle. It needs that extra time to soften and flesh out. 94/100
