Barbaresco, Costa Russi--Vintage 1995
1 dozen bottles per lot
Barbaresco, Costa Russi--Vintage 1995 Piedmont, Gaja In original wooden case "1995 tends to be a good rather than great vintage in Piedmont, but Gaja's sensational 1995s are among the stars of the vintage. This wine possesses extremely saturated dark ruby/purple colors, almost atypical for Nebbiolo. The 1995 Barbaresco Costa Russi is a full-bodied, fruit-driven, and powerful wine, it possesses copious quantities of black raspberry and cherry fruit, as well as toasty new oak. There is even an element of sur-maturite in this large-scaled, expansively flavored effort. I would not be surprised to see it age for 20-25 years. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2020+." Robert Parker Wine Advocate #124 (Aug 1999) 1 dozen bottles per lot
