Tasty and open. Quite sandy tannins. Reminds a lot of 2015 Vintage. Extrovert. Little bit on the lighter side. Will age well but not sure if 20 years + will hold that good. very well balanced.. Solid buy.90- 91p

Pale beautiful red. Roses, black cherries, peppery tannins - woof! Lovely aromas. Beautiful young and easy to get to grips with, and the gentle but obvious tannins give it grip and interest. Really like this - first PdBB and will be buying more.

Approachable, I find this (no surprise, it's Produttori) really speaks to the vintage's characteristics. Very pretty aromas, a full set of flavors and textures. This is a case buy(++?) for those looking for a quality cellar defender. Some purists might balk at first, but this wine is that new shoe that feels like a favorite old shoe in no time, and I think in time, there'll be lots of happy campers. Might be at its best in the short and mid-term as there's just so much to appreciate already. A joy. highly recommended
PNP. Baking spices, vanilla, mineral on the nose. On the palate, vibrant red fruit, cinnamon, tar, medium tannins, and just the right amount of acidity. Very youthful, luscious, and accessible out of the gate! 4-6h of air time (slow ox) didn't really improve the wine, the nose never gained more floral (violets/roses) notes and the fruit profile stayed consistent too. Overall, a very enjoyable showing from the Produttori, it bodes well for the '20 Barbaresco vintage! 91 nose/92 palate

Barolo and friends 2023; 9/8/2023-9/16/2023 (Le Langhe, Piedmont, Italy): *** Tasted at the winery, not released yet, as of 11.09.2023 ***
Weaker than the 2019 in every way, but still good sweet fruit and floral smell, violet. Good concentration and a well made wine.
