Wine from Barbaresco

Wine Enthusiast, 97 points: This has a lovely, alluring nose that evokes rose, iris, woodland berry, new leather and cake spice along with a whiff of camphor. It's focused and delicious, with juicy Marasca cherry, star anise, clove and mocha flavors...

jamessuckling.com, 97 points: This shows phenomenal structure to it with fantastic linear tannins that take this wine deep and long on the palate. It’s buttressed by a beautiful balance of ripe fruit characterized by strawberry and orange-peel...

Wine Spectator, 94 points: A pretty red, leading with rose, strawberry and cherry aromas and flavors allied to an elegant frame, this is firmly structured, if a bit lacier in texture than many 2015s, with accents of earth, tobacco and tar. Ends...

Wine Spectator, 94 points: Exotic aromas of rose, peony, raspberry and kirsch are shaded by juniper, wild thyme and tar accents. This is an elegant red, firmly structured yet balanced and long, with a persistent, detailed finish. Best from 2022...

Vinous, 95 points: (95+) The 2014 Barbaresco Montaribaldi is just as impressive from bottle as it was from barrel, not to mention a more than worthy follow up to the 2013. Wonderfully deep and layered, the 2014 possesses remarkable inner...

Vinous, 92 points: The 2009 Barbaresco Pajé Vecchie Viti shows the heat of the vintage in its powerful, imposing structure. There is plenty of depth and intensity in the glass, but at the same time, the flavors are also more forward. The...

Vinous, 94 points: As always, the 2013 Barbaresco Cottà is a wine of amplitude and breadth. Sweet dark cherry, pomegranate, mint, spices and leather meld together effortlessly. The Cottà has a bit less delineation and nuance than some of...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Here is another knock-out Barbaresco from the talented team at La Spinetta. The 2015 Barbaresco Valeirano Vürsù grows quickly in power and volume as it sits in the glass. That fluid evolution adds to the expansive and...

Wine Enthusiast, 99 points: Rose, violet, red-berry and baking-spice aromas mingle with a whiff of menthol on this compelling gorgeous red. The vibrant full-bodied palate is all about flair and finesse, delivering crushed raspberry, Marasca cherry...
