Costa Russi--Vintage 1997
Piedmont. Gaja
In original wooden case
Tasting Note: The opaque ruby/purple-coloured 1997 Costa Russi (10,000 bottles produced) displays a striking bouquet of blackberry and cherry fruit intermixed with espresso and wood scents. Typically the most internationally-styled Gaja offering, the 1997 comes across as a Nebbiolo on steroids. Full-bodied, gorgeously pure and symmetrical, it should be at its best between 2002-2025. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 135 (June 2001).
