Parker about Barbaresco Double Magnum 1er OWC 2017
The Gaja 2017 Barbaresco is nuanced and delicate with ever-expanding aromatic intensity that amply fills the balloon of your glass. The wine takes a little while to open fully, and it slowly releases forest berry, powdered licorice, toasted aniseed, spearmint, dried lavender and rosemary essence to build a lasting bouquet. The mouthfeel is streamlined and almost steely, with an extremely linear approach that adds to its length and persistence. The tannins are tucked into the wine's delicate fiber, but you do feel the extra textural firmness of the hot vintage nonetheless. As we have seen in past vintages, more definition is added by a pretty mineral note that is a common thread in these wines from Gaja. Production is 38,000 bottles.

Barbaresco Double Magnum 1er OWC 2017
Angelo Gaja Barbaresco 2017 (3.0L Double Magnum in 1-Bottle OWC)
No other wine reflects the heritage and soul of the Gaja family more purely than its flagship Barbaresco.
Crafted from 14 distinct estate vineyards—each contributing its own facet of aroma, structure, and minerality—this timeless classic is seductive in its youth yet built to evolve gracefully over decades, especially in this rare 3.0-litre Double Magnum format.
Angelo Gaja
Information about the winemaker:
The family winery is now one of the best known in Italy and can look back on a centuries-old history. The success story of owner Angelo Gaja began in the 17th century when the family emigrated from Spain to Italy. In 1859, a member of the family, a grape producer in Barbaresco, laid the foundation for the current company by opening a tavern, which also served their own wines. The wines were already so popular at the end of the 19th century that they were supplied to the Italian army, among others. Already in the second generation of the family, an unusually high value was placed on quality, with the aim of retaining a predominantly upscale clientele.
