Gaja Sori Tildin - 1999 (750ml)

More complex, aromatic nose of cassis, flowers, woodsmoke, game and grilled nuts. Silky and suave in the mouth, with sound acidity, but not as dense or as forthcoming today as the '96. But here the tannins are smooth and ripe, and the strong black cherry fruit sweet and persistent. -- Stephen Tanzer
