Score 97/100 · James Suckling, Aug 2019
Thereâs impeccable transparency and freshness to this Barbaresco on the nose, which introduces bright rose petals, lifted orange peel, crushed stones and sour cherries. The stoney tannins trace intricate detail on the medium-to full-bodied palate, highlighting the racy acidity, brambly undertones and a beautiful array of wild berries. Yes, thereâs power and depth of flavor, but this is all about grace and beauty. Drink from 2024.
