Gaja, Sorì San Lorenzo, Barbaresco 1993
Bright, light cherry colour with orange rim. The nose is open, with notes of dry cherry, cigar box, potpourri, cured meat and violets. Good complexity – medium-bodied with decent balance; there’s a slight bitterness, but also a nice freshness and well-integrated tannins. Possibly past its peak but still drinking nicely – a good wine from a poor vintage.
