Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2007
Deep yellow. Peach, truffle and minerals on the nose, with a suggestion of tropical fruits. Fat, full and rich but in a shell today, showing less lift than the 2005. Some low-toned caramel and nutty oak have the upper hand right now. A broad but less fruity style. Gaja notes that the 2005 crop was smaller and more concentrated.
