1989 Gaja Barbaresco
BY ANTONIO GALLONI |
It is still one of the greatest tastings I have ever done. One chilly, late fall afternoon about a dozen years ago, Angelo and Gaia Gaja opened all of their 1989s and 1990s for an article I was working on, Piedmont’s Glorious 1989 and 1990 Vintages Revisited. The scents from those bottles soared throughout the room like voices in a cathedral. It was almost overwhelming. This bottle of the 1989 Barbaresco, tasted recently at the winery, brought back so many vivid memories of that unforgettable afternoon.
