Details
Langhe, Costa Russi--Vintage 1997
Piedmont, Gaja
Lot 270-271 in original wooden cases
Parcel: lots 270-271
"The opaque ruby/purple-colored 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.
A genius for sure, Angelo Gaja can not be faulted for what he puts in the bottle. This work of art is worth every cent it will fetch." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #135 (Jun 2001)
