Wine Enthusiast, 92 points: (WE90-92 points) This wine is laden with tannins yet shows juicy, crisp red-berry flavors. It finishes with great structure.
View From The Cellar, 96 points: Christian Moueix explained that 2011 was the first vintage where the harvesting was organized here to target old vines of a similar age to be picked together, as he went along with the harvesters pointing out which...
Vinous, 94 points: A huge, thrilling wine, the 2011 Barbera del Monferrato Superiore Bricco Battista is endowed with magnificent depth and tons of personality. Layers of intense Barbera fruit burst from the glass in a racy, opulent wine...
Burghound, 92 points: A deft application of wood sets off fresher and more elegant if not more complex aromas of essence of cool red berry fruit, kirsch, wet stone and a hint of humus. There is excellent precision and here too an admirable...
Wine Spectator, 91 points: A bright and glossy red, with cherry, raspberry and oak spice aromas and flavors. Well-integrated, this lingers on the finish, echoing fruit and spice. Drink now through 2023. 70 cases made. — BS
jamessuckling.com, 90 points: This shows a frankness and beauty for a 2011 from the third wine of Latour. Bright and fresh with firm tannins and a currant and berry character. A little lean. Better in 2016
jamessuckling.com, 97 points: A Barolo with beautiful berry, cappuccino and terra cotta character. Full body, round and velvety. Long finish. Better in 2018.
Wine Spectator, 95 points: Offers a mouthfilling, brambly feel, with dark plum, steeped blackberry and mulled boysenberry fruit at the core, backed by anise, singed mesquite and black tea notes that give the finish a perfumy caste. Has depth and...
Burghound, 93 points: A very spicy nose that is earthier still and also notably sauvage in character combines with ripe aromas of black raspberry, plum and exotic tea that are again trimmed in enough wood to notice. There is a beguiling mouth...
Wine & Spirits, 92 points: This two-acre walled vineyard once belonged to the Benedictine priory of the abbey of St-Germain-des-Prés in Paris. The chardonnay vines face east, where they border the Vouge stream, growing in calcareous soil with a lot...
jamessuckling.com, 92 points: A wine with lots of dried-fruit, spice, berry and chocolate aromas and flavors. Full body with round, velvety tannins. Rich finish. Lots of new-wood character but will come together nicely. A small producer to follow...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Reminiscent of a lighter weight 2009, the 2011 Chateauneuf du Pape offers up a sweet bouquet of spiced black cherries, plum, truffle, saddle leather and underbrush. Coming from tiny yields (which were down 50% from 2010)...
jamessuckling.com, 96 points: A dense and velvety red with lots of chocolate, berry and spice character. Hints of mushroom too. Full body. Chewy and rich finish. Needs four to five years to soften. Great richness. Wonderful Cannubi.
