Score 91/100 · Drink 2023-2036, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Jun 2021
This release of 2,820 bottles from a classic vintage shows a lot of depth and personality. Dark fruit and medium concentration give the Carlo Giacosa 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Luca power and overall presence. Dark berry notes cede to spice, tarry smoke and grilled herb. This is a nice, near-term Riserva with enough bright acidity on the close for a steak and mushroom dinner.
