Antonio Galloni - Wine Advocate
Gaja’s 2004 Sori Tildin floats on the palate.
It is the most nuanced of these single-vineyard offerings, with
gorgeous notes of tar, smoke, roses, violets, sweet toasted oak
and earthiness that emerge from the glass in a counterpoint of sublime
elegance and stunning purity. It possesses superb length and elegant,
silky tannins to round out the finish. This extraordinary Sori Tildin
will require at least a few years of bottle age, but it is destined
to be one of the vintage’s legendary wines.
Anticipated maturity: '14 - '24. |

Wine Spectator
Incredibly perfumed, with chocolate, mineral and
blackberry. Full-bodied, with amazing finesse, strength and balance.
Long and beautiful. A return to the quality level of '01.
Best after '11. |
