Gaja’s Costa Russi is usually the most aromatic and elegant of the three single vineyard wines with a finer structure. The 2014 retains its personality with an expansive bouquet of wild berries mingled with rose petals and an attractive balsamic note. Succulent and rich on the palate, it has a core of sweet red fruits with darker mulberry and blackberry...

The 2011 really highlights the nuance, subtlety and elegance that this site is capable of whilst retaining the depth, verve and structure. This is a powerfully built Barbaresco but one with striking finesse. There is so much complexity but it is seamless and weightlessly elegant. One of the best Sorì Tildìns we have tasted. Supreme.

"The 2022 Barbaresco Asili is gorgeous. Silky, aromatic and light on its feet, the 2022 is classic Asili all the way. Its translucent finesse and energy are remarkable.

"A classic Giacosa Falletto showing real authority: concentrated and tight showing great purity. Fresh and lifted with bright aromatics. The herbal character enlivens the sip, finishing with a touch of mint and chocolate. Tannins are perfectly integrated. Great." Armit Wines

"A dry, nicely textured crisp white with refreshing citrus notes and a mineral edge." Armit Wines

The 2020 is quite simply one of the very...

"A beautiful expression from the great Falletto vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba, a Giacosa family Monopole and with ideal South West exposure. Red cherry, blood orange and rose petal unfurl from the glass. With time this offers further nuances of leather and truffle. Distinctly grippy and mineral, this is hallmark Giacosa." Armit Wines

"Rose petals with beautifully intertwined notes of chocolate and Indian spices. Among the best expressions of Asili with hard to articulate focus and elegance. Young but already showing plenty of class. Magnificent." Armit Wines
