Gaja Sperss 1997

Description:

Gaja Sperss 1997
Piedmont
"A virtually perfect effort is the 1997 Sperss (30,000 bottles),which represents the essence of truffles, earth, and black cherries in its striking aromatics and multidimensional, opulent, full-bodied palate. The acidity seems low because of the huge glycerin levels and prodigious concentration of fruit, but I suspect it is normal in the scheme of oenological measurement. This profound wine requires 3-4 years of cellaring, and should age well for 30-35 years." R. Parker, 99 pts. 06/01
4 bottles
Estimate $900-1,200
