James Suckling 92pt

This is very open and satisfying with ripe cherries, rose hips and mild spices. Hint of cocoa, too. Medium-bodied with compact but quite supple tannins. Smooth, well integrated and already attractive to drink. Drink or hold.

Wine Enthusiast 90pt

A seductive Barolo that captures its terroir's essence. The lush nose offers candied raspberry, cherry, sweet cinnamon, and thyme. The palate showcases intriguing medicinal herbs, eucalyptus, and mint, harmonizing with ripe, candied strawberry and redcurrant flavors. Taut, well-structured tannins provide a solid backbone to this alluring wine.

Wine Spectator 93pt

This is elegant and well-defined, offering cherry, blood orange, menthol and mineral flavors. A structured version, this remains lively and lingers on the finish, with elements of sweet spices. Fresh and balanced.
