The wines of Angelo Gaja Costa Russi & San Lorenzo & & Sori Tildin & Darmagi / Piedmont / Italy Offer (義大利頂尖2010 年)- * 皇冠最耀眼璀璨的鑽石* 頂級品項 *-
Gaja歌雅酒廠由Giovanni Gaja先生創立於1859年，自創立至今已流傳四代，目前由Giovanni Gaja 先生的曾孫Angelo Gaja先生管理，1961年時，現任酒廠總裁Angelo Gaja先生正式進入家族事業，專心致力於葡萄的種植與品質控管上。而1967年則是釀造 Sori San Lorenzo 索利–聖羅倫佐紅酒的葡萄在Barbaresco DOCG第一次年份；值得注意的是在1981年時 Gaja 歌雅酒廠增添了現代化的不鏽鋼控溫發酵槽，並藉此更完整的設備以輔助釀造出絕佳品質的葡萄酒。
在他心目中，被眾人認為是”傳統派大師”的Bruno Giacosa，一直以來是除了父親之外，他最景仰的偉大釀酒家。和後來的許多新派酒莊不一樣的是他還是使用非常傳統的30天發酵期(新派多為5~7天)，發酵完後只使用新桶比例30%的225公升法國橡木桶來培醞，經過一年的木桶陳年之後，所有的酒放回入使用超過80~100年古老歷史的大型斯拉夫橡木桶及栗子木桶(1,000~10,000公升) 繼續陳年培醞約一年的時間。
這些說明了Angelo Gaja的哲理是堅守著傳統的美好，再透過不斷演進的更佳技術來提升並突破義大酒可以達到的更高境界。許多的結果，證明的Angelo Gaja改革的方向是對的，所有Gaja的酒款不斷地獲得來自世界各地的喝采，1985年的一系列Gaja Barbaresco，獲得美國Wine Spectator雜誌讚揚為有史以來最精彩的義大利酒，Angelo Gaja本人也獲得英國Decanter雜誌選為1998年度風雲人物(Man of the Year)。
直至今日，Gaja歌雅酒廠在Piemont擁有包含位於Barbaresco與Barolo 法定產區中共250英畝的葡萄園，幅員遼闊，風景優雅，品質更是精良不在話下。Gaja歌雅酒廠也力求精進，除了盡心照護美麗的莊園，也著眼於釀酒技術與品質的管理，並期許能以最嚴謹的方式釀造出獨一無二的極致典藏。Gaja三個獨立葡萄園~ Sori San Lorenzo、Costa Russi、Sori Tildin表現出其優雅的酒體、細膩的單寧、層次感豐富的結構令所有義大利及至全歐洲的酒評家刮目相看，義大利葡萄酒在國際市場的地位亦都從此登上一個新的里程碑，無論是在蘇富比或佳士經常可以看見Gaja的蹤跡。放眼Gaja的所有酒款，來自Barbaresco 的三款單一葡萄園-“Sori San Lorenzo”、”Costa Russi”和”Sori Tildin”，絕對是皇冠上最耀眼璀璨的鑽石，是代表Gaja家族對酒莊發源地 Barbaresco 最高的致敬!
The Angelo Gaja Barbaresco “Costa Russi “ 2010 – Robert Parker : 95分 & James Suckling: 95分
Robert Parker Tasting Note : The 2010 Costa Russi is a vineyard-designate “Barbaresco” (although the wine’s addition of five percent Barbera prohibits it from being called such) that opens to even more profound depth and generosity. As is typical of this cru expression, the wine displays an amazing assortment of aromas that span from the floral to the spicy. Supple, round and seductive, it caresses the palate in the most beautiful fashion. The 2010 vintage is shaping up handsomely for those who collect Gaja’s best bottles. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2035.
Wine Spectator Tasting Note : A modern style, with black cherry, pomegranate, plum and spice flavors. Supple and harmonious, offering refined tannins and a lingering aftertaste of berry, white pepper and tobacco. Shows terrific length and energy on the minerally finish. This has the structure to develop. Best from 2016 through 2030. 500 cases made.

The Angelo Gaja “Sori San Lorenzo” 2010 – Robert Parker : 98分 & James Suckling: 96分
Robert Parker Tasting Notes: A banner wine for Gaja, the 2010 Sori San Lorenzo brings the infinite and ethereal aromas associated with Nebbiolo into startling focus and clarity. Again, like the Sori Tildin, the structure and tannic firmness of the wine will carry the wine forward over the years and decades ahead. It demands much more time until it fully blossoms. I walked through the San Lorenzo vineyard with Gaia Gaja and she showed me some of their recent activity. Every second row is planted with barley that acts as a natural rototiller given its aggressive root system. Borrowing other “New World” ideas, they’ve started compost piles with Californian red worms and are using (with less success, I’m told) wooden tree boxes to repopulate the birds. All of this must seem very odd to the neighbors. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2040
Wine Spectator Tasting Note : This muscular red features ample fruit, with a fine quality to the stiff tannins, offering loads of cherry, tar and sandalwood flavors, with excellent length. Give this a few years. Best from 2016 through 2032. 500 cases made.

The Angelo Gaja “ Sori Tildin ” 2010 – Robert Parker : 96+分 & James Suckling: 96分
Robert Parker Tasting Notes: Gaia Gaja uses the word “salty” to describe this next wine, and I see her point. The 2010 Sori Tildin shows a dry, firmly structured quality that enhances those extraordinary, breezy overtones of lead pencil and brimstone that so fittingly frame the Nebbiolo grape. The lingering end-notes of rose petal, ginger and cedar are striking. You immediately feel the tannic structure and power of the wine. The jump is very sharp next to the Costa Russi, and that’s why this is one of Gaja’s best cellar-agers. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2040
Wine Spectator Tasting Note : Displaying plenty of cherry, raspberry and floral notes, this is well-structured and balanced, with hints of sweet spices gracing the finish. Very expressive now, showing the potential to age. Juicy and long. Best from 2016 through 2029. 500 cases made.

The Angelo Gaja “Darmagi ” 2010 – Robert Parker : 94分 & James Suckling: 94分
Robert Parker Tasting Notes: A pure expression of Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2011 Darmagi delivers loads of varietal character with tangy aromas of wild sage and rosemary oil followed by extra dark color and saturation. There’s a deep sense of richness here that will carry this elegant wine forward throughout the years. Black cherry and chocolate fill the rear. Drink: 2017-2035.
