Another great video! Excited to just read that Angelo will be part of the NY Wine Experience this year. I’ve not had the opportunity to taste Gaja wines with much age, but look forward to adding some of those wines to my cellar.

Thank you kindly! Cheers!

Of academic interest only for me, John but interesting nonetheless. I might search for a 25 y.o. Gaja but it is likely, even if I could source one, to be way outside my budget. I have some '13 and '18 Barbarescos (but not Gaja, alas) which will have to do the job.

Thank you, Steven. This is one that we often chip in to try with some age. Prices are definitely heading north, but the older vintages are absolutely the way to go both due to cost and because they are more ready to enjoy.

I had the chance to get Sorí Tildin and San Lorenzo 2004 for a really good price (below 200$) and I am sad that even their Barbaresco is now more expensive then these aged premium versions.

That is great to hear about the 2004! Yes, at this time buying back vintages is definitely the way to go. The pricing has definitely skyrocketed of late.

What an excellently created video about one of Italy’s most revered producers! As a wine enthusiast with a deep appreciation for this winery’s history and relentless quest for excellence, I found your presentation exceptionally informative, insightful, engaging, and authoritative. Your explanation of Gaja's innovations in Barbaresco production clearly shows your audience this producer’s commitment to unparalleled quality as well as their crucial role in elevating the region’s wines to global recognition.

@@margauxml Thank you! At least the Barbaresco wines. Gaja still has many more in Barolo and Tuscany! Hard to keep track of all of them!

@@AttorneySommYes, indeed! The sentence was supposed to include Barbaresco but I guess the headache got in the way.😅 Thank you for making that important clarification. Have a lovely Wednesday, John!

GAJA might be the best wine(s) outside of burgundy/bordeaux. Sperlle,Barberesco, and San Lorenzo are ridiculous .if ever you drink them aged you are in for an experience
