98 AG "A model of pure refinement, the 1989 Barbaresco Sorì Tildìn emerges from the glass with silky tannins that frame a core of perfumed red fruit. The wine continues to show off endless layers of detail. Fruit, acidity and structure; it's all there in the magical 1989 Sorì Tildìn. This is another immortal, totally seductive wine from Gaja. As always, the Sorì Tildìn is the most sculpted and nuanced of Gaja's single-vineyard wines." 98 WA "The 1989 Barbaresco Sori Tildin emerges from the glass with silky tannins that frame a core of perfumed red fruit.

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
