Sperss Barolo 2018

Sperss Barolo 2018 from Gaja

In 1988 Gaja acquired this 12ha vineyard in one of Serralunga’s best areas and named it ‘Sperss’ meaning nostalgia for the childhood memories of Angelo’s Father, Giovanni, who harvested the site as a boy.  A mix of ripe fruits, liquorice, juniper and earth flavours mark this austere Barolo, which tiptoes between elegance and power. With air, a soft and intriguing wooded note comes forward. A vortex of dark fruits envelop palate, together with layers of robust tannins.
