A subtle nose of tart cherry, saddle leather and vanilla rises from the glass, carrying seamlessly onto the palate of this medium-bodied red. It unspools with a lusher mid-section, yet remains framed by firm, taut, mineral-laden tannins that build toward a lasting, savoury-spiced finish.

Raffaele Vecchione93 pts

Bright and elegant, it displays a rich sensory profile with nuances of red fruits, including red plums, wild strawberries, geraniums, cherries, and raspberries. Medium-full bodied, lively and essential on the palate, it finishes harmoniously, decidedly persuasive and engaging. Simply beautiful. Drink now or age it.

James Suckling92 pts

A tight Barbaresco that has aromas of orange peel, red and sour cherries and tar on the nose. Full-bodied, poised and firm with chewy tannins. Fresh and tightly wound for now. From organically grown grapes. Try from 2027.

Wine Enthusiast91 pts

Fresh cherry aromas leap from the glass, followed by a captivating rush of rose and violets. Subtle hints of sage, shrub, and warmed spices linger in the background. On the palate, the wine pops like pop rocks, bursting with tart red fruits and a vibrant acidity that keeps the flavors fresh and lively. The super fine tannins make this wine approachable today, but there are still hidden flavors waiting to be revealed with time. Drink Now - 2040
