Winery notes (2020 Vintage)
"An exceptionally complex Barbaresco. Tannic and structured thanks to the limestone composition of the soil, it still retains a characteristic freshness and minerality that make it highly appreciated by connoisseurs."

Importer notes (2020 Vintage)
"A complex and complete Barbaresco Riserva from a top Cru vineyard. Montefico is one of the richer of the Crus in Produttori's famous range, occupying a warm site near the legendary and even more powerful Montestefano.While still offering the refinement of this more feminine Nebbiolo style, the sheer depth of the Montefico offers lushness in the nearer term as well as a seriously long-term future in cellar."

96+/100 Monica Larner, RobertParker.com, Wine Advocate (2020 Vintage)
"Two standouts from the 2020 vintage are Montefico and Asili. The Produttori del Barbaresco 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Montefico comes from a site that is distant from the warm air that travels through the Tanaro River Valley and is closed within an amphitheater. This is a beautiful vineyard that looks toward the village of Neive and has active limestone soils. The wine is especially compact in texture and has a distinctly herbal note, with dried rosemary and lavender, that gives it a Mediterranean or botanical feel. The palate delivers a brief moment of softness, but otherwise the wine is structured and rich. Drink 2026 – 2050."

96/100 Kerin O'Keefe (2020 Vintage)
"The most closed of the Riservas at this stage, the 2020 Montefico has aromas and flavors recalling red berry, spice, tobacco and forest floor. It’s brooding and youthfully austere, with firm tannins. Showing more aging potential than its siblings, this will also need a little more time."

96/100 Antonio Galloni, Vinous (2020 Vintage)
"A complex, beautifully layered wine, the 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Montefico expresses so many of the attributes that make the wines from this vintage and site so intriguing. The bouquet alone is wonderfully complex. Dried herbs, mint, pine, tobacco and cedar open first, leading to a core of chiseled dark-toned fruit. A vertical, structured Barbaresco, the Montefico is superb. Drink 2025 – 2035."
