This treasure of the wine world is super-quality stuff, reflecting the very best Barbaresco practise and broad sources of the village's top Nebbiolo. Mineral acid and juicy tannins enliven the wine's beautifully bright, floral delicacies. Charming yet consummate, this everything we hope for from this nuanced, fresh style. This again lives up to Parker's touchstone description as "one of the very finest values in ageworthy wine from anywhere in the world".
96/100 Kerin O'Keefe, Leading Italian Wine Critic (2019 Vintage)
"Camphor, rose, cedar and ripe red berry aromas come to the forefront on this beautiful Barbaresco. Smooth and elegantly structured, the focused palate features ripe Morello cherry, crushed raspberry, star anise and white pepper alongside taut, refined tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it well balanced."
94-95/100 & Outstanding, Jeb Dunnuck (USA Wine Critic) (2019 Vintage)
"There is a more pronounced mineral and delicately spiced character to the 2019 Barbaresco, with notes of wet asphalt and kirsch and vibrant purity. It has elegant concentration, with fine coiled tannins in its hints of tea leaves, bergamot, and ripe wild raspberry, and has a more pronounced structure, This is a fantastic expression. Best After 2024."

"This is extremely floral and bright on the nose with lavender, violets and dark berries. Orange peel too. Full-bodied and solid with firm tannins and a tight finish. Better in 2024."
91/100 Antonio Galloni, vinous.com (2019 Vintage)
"The 2019 Barbaresco is a gorgeous wine to drink now and over the next 15-20 years, give or take. Sweet, floral and open, the 2019 offers lovely brightness and energy to match its mid-weight, nervy feel. Sweet dried cherry, mint, crushed flowers and savory notes all grace this soft, understated Barbaresco from the Produttori."
