1/30/2016 - forceberry wrote: 90 pointsDark, moderately translucent ruby red color with a hint of developed maroon hue. The nose is somewhat dusty and closed with aromas of smoke, earthy sous-bois, a little bit of tobacco and a little bit of ripe red fruit. With air the nose gains a noticeable streak of tar. The wine is dry, developed and complex on the palate with medium-to-moderately full body and quite tertiary flavors of ripe red berries, savory smoke, some sous-bois, a little bit of damp leaves, light roasted spice tones and a hint of sour cherry bitterness. The structure relies mostly on the acidity, because even though the powdery tannins feel ample, they are fully resolved and contribute mainly to the texture, not to the structure. The finish is spicy, pretty acid-driven and slightly grippy with long flavors of sour cherries, some ripe dark berries, a little bit of smoke, light earthy tones and a hint of pipe tobacco. |

12/16/2008 - Chevaliers wrote: 78 pointsVery thin yet overly tannic and dry at the same time. Little fruit with a short finish and no mid-palate at all. Vinous, hot, unbalanced and alcoholic, with the double whammy of drying tannins make for an unpleasant, mediocre drink. Highly unrecommended. -JBL |

12/31/2019 - Bluespolo wrote: 89 pointsFacile ma non semplice, né tantomeno banale. petali di rosa, fiori di campo e ciliegia rossa, balsamico di menta fresca con un sottofondo appena di cuoio. Struttura discreta, non aggressivo nonostante la fase giovanile, buone freschezza e persistenza. |

7/21/2006 - Thilo wrote: 91 pointsColor is dark garnet to the rim -- this s a big Barbaresco. On the nose, cherry, pepper, smoke, and tar. Palate revealed tart cherry, earth, tar, adn significant tannin. This is still a bit of a handful at this point, but with more time should continue to mellow. Thanks to John Amend (Dallas master of Italian wines) for another excellent Italian. |

2/3/2017 - pdev wrote: 89 pointsMore fruit driven on the nose than the barbera, prettier nose, with strawberry, a hint of licorice. Big tannins on the palate. Drinking like young nebbiolo, dusty red cherry. |

5/21/2017 - Doc90 wrote: 90 pointsWise old copper-brown color. Floral nose with classic Barbaresco aromas of dried rose petals, cola, and tar. Floral palate full of dried rose petals. Slow, lingering finish. Time to drink this up because the fruit is just beginning to recede while the tannins remain strong. Still, a good representation of Barbaresco expression and a good pairing for pizza. |

3/31/2021 - grapenomad wrote: 91 pointsLovely light ruby in the glass. Nose is quite subtle, but that seems reasonable considering the age of this wine. All fruit, no signs of development at the moment. This restrictive character goes onto the palate as well. It typically reflects what Barbaresco is all about - elegance, sophistication and vivacity. Lovely structure that will give this wine decades of aging ability. Wait a couple of more years before cracking it open. |

2/27/2005 - jdengis wrote: NROutstanding bottle of traditional Barbaresco. Quite primary, tarry and tannic when opened but developed nicely in the decanter, putting on a nice floral sweetness after 6 hours or so. Complex and in need of further cellaring. Try again in 2008. |

4/11/2023 - cincybt Likes this wine: 91 pointsThis is in the plenty-good category and a really nice barbaresco table wine for mid-week. Bone dry, bright berries, underbrush, cedar, smidge of juniper and new leather wallet. (Sorry, just got one.) It’s still young but like most Piemonti it warrants a decant. Glad to have more of these. |

9/3/2022 - viniferatu wrote: NRDecant this for 6+ hours or drink it over a couple days, as it is tight on opening. This note is after a few hours open, when it was just starting to strut... Aromas of red cherry, blue plum, raspberry, menthol, dried mushrooms, sweet almond candy, a little licorice, roses, and bloody steak... Medium bodied, fresh, and satin textured; this is fine boned as Barbaresco goes; tannins grip but do not overwhelm, acid is buried and supportive, fruit is layered and dense... a fabulous inner perfume of stone fruits and minty herbs seamlessly integrates with a long pure finish that highlights minerality, cherry and fine-grained tannin. Very pretty right now, but this deserves cellaring. I don't see it shutting down, but rather steadily improving for 5 to 10, if not 15 to 20. When it hits its stride, I expect it will be elegant and ebullient at once. This is a beauty. |

9/10/2022 - Rixon Likes this wine: 93 pointsRelativt mörkt röd för en barbaresco. Hög syra och höga distinkta tanniner som balanserar fint mot fruktaromerna. Över förväntan. Ett utmärkt vin som enligt mig inte behöver mer tid i källaren. Lång, intensiv och komplex. |

12/8/2019 - ducrufan Likes this wine: 88 pointshelle bis mittlere Farbe, ganz leicht bräunlich im rot, deutlicher Wasserrand. Viel Kräuterwürze im Duft, auch schon mit leichter Reifeoxidation, Pralinen. Riecht trotz fortgeschrittener Reife nicht verkehrt. Ausgewogen, trotz Tanninrest ein weicher Barbaresco, hat Finesse, kein Kraftprotz, aber mit guter Länge und er macht mir wirklich Vergnügen. Bald trinken. |

9/24/2019 - ieatprawnsss Likes this wine: 93 pointsDouble decanted then slow ox for 3 hours, then consumed over 2 hours. Elegant structure, round and well integrated. Dried red cherries, raisins, tar, leather and licorice. Nose was shy at first but came out to play after an hour. Slightly hot going down, but not overly so. Some chewy tannin appeared in the 2nd glass, but settled down by the next. Lingering, consistent finish. Absolutely what one would like with a Barbaresco, very nice indeed. |

5/12/2022 - Richard P Howden Likes this wine: 91 pointsBeautiful nose of crushed flowers, red fruit, over a crunchy dark berry fruited palate. Very dark, earthy, almost tar-y on the palate. Good balance and some tannins - this could be consumed now or put away for a few years easily. |
