Score 90/100 · Drink 2005-2015, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Aug 2005
The 2000 Barbaresco Gaiun is the house’s barrel-aged selection, sweet on the nose and with perceptible oak spice and caramel notes, round and ready on the palate, ample, spicy, and soft on the finish. It should drink well from 2005-2015. Importer: Dalla Terra Imports, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-5405

Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2004
(aged in barriques Medium red. Deeper, musky aromas of strawberry, raspberry, espresso and nutty oak. Lusher and deeper-pitched than the Martinenga, with nutty and woodsy elements. But not sweeter or more vibrant than the Martinenga. Here, the wine's dusty, lingering tannins arrive later and the wine's subtle flavors linger longer.
