The 2022 Barbaresco Sorì Tildin is laced with brilliant red-toned fruit, mint, blood orange, chalk, dried flowers and white pepper. Even in this torrid, dry vintage, Sorì Tildin retains its super-classic feel and essential qualities, most specifically its focus. (AG)

Aromas of dark spice, eucalyptus and black-skinned fruit lift out of the 2022 Sorì Tildin. Made with grapes cultivated in Roncagliette, it delivers succulent flavors of Morello cherry, ripe plum and cake spice alongside well integrated tannins. (KO)

Stepping up in structure and intensity compared to the Costa Russi, the Gaja 2022 Barbaresco Sorì Tildìn exhibits broad shoulders and depth. It delivers a dark fruit character surrounded by hints of campfire ash and crushed mineral. There is always a vein of ferrous mineral in this wine, and you definitely get it in this vintage. It comes with pretty background aromas of sambuca, aniseed and spicy ginger. The tannins are superbly managed to offer finesse and firmness. (ML)
