Tasting Notes and Scores
With fruit from Serralunga d'Alba, the 2011 Langhe Sperss is a wine of profound beauty. This is a velvety and caressing expression with dark fruit layers followed by kirsch, cassis, leather, balsam herb and white truffle. The Gaja family decided to move their bottling date forward in order to preserve the integrity and freshness of fruit in this warm vintage. This move has helped to avoid overripe sensations. In fact, Langhe Sperss seems fresh and tonic. This bodes exceptionally well for its aging potential.

Serralunga. More than a shade deeper than the 2011 Conteisa and more distinctly oaked. Rich and yet lifted with a firm, tannic spine. Long, bold and ageworthy. (WS)
