Description

The 2021 Gaja Sperss Barolo is a powerful expression of Nebbiolo from Piedmont, showing red cherry, raspberry and dark plum with rose petals, violet, tobacco and subtle earthy spice.

On the palate, it is full-bodied and finely structured, with vibrant acidity, firm tannins and layers of red fruit, dried flowers, savoury herbs and spice. The finish is long, dry and persistent, with excellent cellaring potential.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional choice for Barolo collectors seeking depth, structure and classic Nebbiolo character. Best enjoyed from 2030–2048. Pair with braised beef cheek, truffle tajarin, wild mushroom risotto or slow-roasted venison.

About the region

Piedmont · Barbaresco

Piedmont, or Piemonte, sits in Italy's north-west under the Alps. Its great grape is Nebbiolo, which ripens late, is often picked in autumn fog, and reaches its fullest expression in the Langhe hills at Barolo and Barbaresco. Those wines are pale and firmly tannic when young, and turn to tar, dried rose and truffle with age. Alongside them Barbera and Dolcetto supply the everyday reds, and Moscato d'Asti the sweet, lightly sparkling whites.
