Score 87/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2004
Medium red. Vinous aromas of cherry, truffle, underbrush and dried flowers. Smooth and moderately sweet, with good breadth and supple texture. Offers a floral perfume but currently shows limited complexity and concentration. Tannins are dusty but even. Best today on the nose.

Score 88/100 · Drink 2005-2014, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Oct 2003
The 2000 Barbaresco could be termed the prototype of the house style, a fresh medium garnet, it exhales the classic Nebbiolo perfume of roses and violets, tobacco, anise, and cinnamon. Silky yet firm in flavor, elegant and balanced, its flow is sustained by light yet decisive tannins and a pure, focused finish. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2014. Importer: Dalla Terra, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-5405
