97 points Decanter: "Gaja's wines seem to be more precise in fruit and less extracted today than in previous decades. The tremendously youthful pomegranate and wild strawberry character discloses the ageing potential of this Sorì Tildin, supported by a full body and firm, tight-knit tannins, and underlined by still-firm acid. The finish shows the sweet character of straw and mild tobacco. This still needs time. Drinking Window: 2020-2045. (Oct 2018)"
96 points Wine Spectator: "Almost seamless now, this red is hitting its stride, exuding cherry, strawberry, floral, mineral and tobacco aromas and flavors. Offers great structure and length, with a firm, minerally aftertaste. Best from 2022 through 2040. 165 cases imported. (3/31/19)"
95 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2015 Barbaresco Sorì Tildìn is bright, perfumed and lifted in feel. Sorì Tildìn is always the most delicate of the single vineyard wines. In 2015, it is also a touch lithe. Bright red cherry, mint, pine and floral notes gradually develop in the glass. In two tastings separated by about six weeks, the Sorì Tildìn was uncharacteristically austere and compact, its considerable character notwithstanding. Sorì Tildìn is usually a wine of sensuality, but I don't see much of that at this admittedly early stage. Drink: 2025-2045. (Oct 2018)"
95 points and 'Cellar Selection,' Wine Enthusiast: "Wild berry, scorched earth, star anise, crushed herb and a whiff of toasted hazelnut pave the way on this poised full-bodied red. The structured palate boasts remarkable elegance, evoking juicy Marasca cherry, black raspberry, licorice and graphite alongside fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it well balanced and imparts youthful tension. Drink 2022–2035. Alcohol 14.5%. (Feb 2019)"
