2014 Conteisa Langhe Angelo Gaja, Piemont (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2014 Conteisa Langhe, Angelo Gaja

The 2014 Barolo Conteisa is an impressive wine that defies the odds of the vintage. Although the Cerequio vineyard did not suffer hail in 2014 (it did in 2016), grape production was reduced by half anyway. The remaining grapes delivered their best with intense flavors and crisp contours. Gaia Gaja tells me that the clusters harvested were perfect in appearance. This is a perfumed wine that offers defined aromas of wild cherry that rise to the top with intensity. The wine's tonality is dark and thick, and the tannins are full and structured. - Monica Larner, Juni 2018

Wine Spectator - 2014 Conteisa Langhe, Angelo Gaja

Though young and still a bit rough around the edges, this is harmonious, featuring cherry, berry, herb and tar aromas and flavors. The finish is long and vibrant, with earth and mineral elements. Best from 2021 through 2035. - Feb. 2019
