The 2006 Barbaresco reveals terrific concentration, depth and purity. This is a remarkably soft, harmonious Barbaresco from Angelo Gaja with pretty notes of raspberries, crushed flowers and spices. The wine turns more powerful in the glass, as it gains additional richness, volume and depth, all of which carry through to the polished finish. The wine's balance is impeccable, and this is easily is one the more harmonious, complete wines of the vintage. Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

From magnum. A beautiful wine from a great vintage. To be critical a touch too much oak. Will appeal to just about everyone.

Color : Red Wine estate : GAJA Designation : Barbaresco Name : Barbaresco Country : Italy Vivino : 4.5/5 Note : The nectar of Piemonte with this Barbaresco 2006. A robe as delicate as a stroll in the vineyards on Barbaresco or simply ruby. A nose that gives us a beautiful complexity with flavors of prunes, liquorice or coffee. On the palate, the strength of GAJA is revealed with silky and long tannins.
