The 2020 Barbaresco Costa Russi is a classy polished wine. Dark cherry plum mocha new leather licorice and lavender all take shape. As always Costa Russi is the most supple and charming of the Gaja Barbarescos in the early going.This is a superb set of wines from the Gaja family. The 2021 whites are notable for their vibrancy. Moving further into the tasting the 2020 Barbarescos are gorgeous vibrant wines that impress with their delineation. The 2020s need time in the glass to emerge but the signatures of each wine are very much present. The same is true for the 2019 Barolos. These days the Gaja wines are defined by greater energy than in the past but they remain quintessentially Gaia in breeding.
