Barbaresco--Vintage 1971
Piedmont, Gaja
Levels: 2cm; lightly bin soiled labels
"A few days after drinking the superb '61 at Sparks in New York (in 1984), I returned to the restaurant and ordered the '71. It was well-nigh perfect. Exactly a decade later: still a lovely colour; not showing its age at all; sweet, fullish, rich, silky tannins, good length. Lovely to drink by itself. Last noted dining with Angelo Gaja at Il Cascinalenuovo, Isola d'Asti, November 1994 *****." MB, Vintage Wine
