One bottle of Gaja Barbaresco 2019 — the flagship wine of one of Italy’s most iconic estates, and in this vintage a wine of exceptional importance: Gaja decided not to produce any of its single-vineyard cru Barbarescos in 2019, concentrating the finest lots from all 14 estate vineyards into this single bottling. The 2019 is described as “striking and beautiful with enormous depth and clarity — a generous wine with ample structure, vibrant acidity, sweet tannins and a bright core of primary fruit.” Rose, wild strawberries, marzipan, wild fennel and juniper on the nose; saline and tense on the palate with crisp red fruits, iron, mineral and bright acidity. Rated 95/100 Wine Advocate, 95/100 Wine Spectator, 93+/100 Vinous, 94/100 James Suckling. Best from 2026–2045. Bottle in perfect condition — intact label and capsule, top fill level. Stored in a professional temperature-controlled cellar.
