Sperss 2017

Gaja

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 98.0

Sperrs means nostalagia and is a nod to Gaja’s family memories of this top site producing brooding, densely textured 100% Nebbiolo from the Sperss vineyard in Serralunga. A wine with an appealing juiciness which embraces a polish, velvety and ethereal character. Delicate berry notes cede to red orange and anise. The wine displays a vertical lift, austere tannins and a very long finish.

James Suckling

Very intense aromas of roasted hazelnuts with dried flowers, tar and fruit. Full-bodied and very tight with a solid core of chewy yet refined tannins, this is a classically proportioned Barolo that displays superb structure and length. A thoroughly great wine. Try after 2025.

Susan Hulme MW

Gajas 2017 Barolo Sperss starts off with attractive notes of ripe strawberry, against a background of white chalk and gentle sweet-spice notes of oak. On the palate it is much more fleshy and concentrated than the 2018, with a soft, round and full impression and some little, crunchy, drier tannins. The tannins are more compact and fine and are closing down the fruit a little today but of course, there is always the Gaja signature of supreme finesse to balance this.
