Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

Following so quickly after the celestial 2016 vintage, this Gaja 2017 Barolo Sperss shows muscle and brawn; however, the Conteisa holds its own in terms of aromatic complexity. With fruit from Serralunga d'Alba, that added concentration and determination are expected, especially in a hot and dry vintage such as 2017. Here you get dark cherry fruit with cassis and wild plum. There are also floral aromas that veer toward red rose more than they do violets or blue flowers. And, of course, you get some of those iron-rich or mineral notes of rusty nail or iron that are often associated with Sperss. Drink Date 2025-2050. Rating 96/100. -Monica Larner-

Vinous:

The 2017 Barolo Sperss is a powerful, backward wine. In 2017 Sperss is not as huge as in some previous years, but then again, the move towards greater finesse has been in place for some time now. In tasting, Sperss feels more extracted and tannic than Conteisa (even after allowing for the clear differences in site), with a strong oak imprint that is also pretty evident. Sage, tobacco, scorched earth and spice meld into a core of dark Serralunga fruit in this imposing Barolo from Gaja. Give it a few years to soften. Drink Date 2025-2042. Rating 95/100. -Antonio Galloni-

James Suckling:

Very intense aromas of roasted hazelnuts with dried flowers, tar and fruit. Full-bodied and very tight with a solid core of chewy yet refined tannins, this is a classically proportioned Barolo that displays superb structure and length. A thoroughly great wine. Try after 2025. Rating 98/100. -JamesSuckling.com-

Jancis Robinson:

Light ruby. Sweet red-cherry aroma, fragrant and inviting. Seems more perfumed than the Costa Russi and the tannins finer, softer, though they still build to a long, dry finesse and freshness on the finish. Rating 18/20. -Julia Harding MW-

falstaff.com:

Glänzendes Rubingranat. Intensive Nase mit satten Noten nach Brombeere, dunkler Kirsche und Zwetschke, ein Hauch Leder im Hintergrund. Zupackendes, sehr griffiges Tannin am Gaumen dominiert den Verlauf, entfaltet satten Druck, feine Frucht, im Finale noch etwas spröde, braucht noch Lagerung. Bewertung 95/100. -falstaff.com, Othmar Kiem & Simon Staffler-
