Vinous: 94 Points
The 2021 Barbaresco shows all the pedigree and classicism of this great vintage. Bright, poised and super-expressive, the 2021 is a total delight in every way. Crushed leaves, orange peel, mint, rosewater and sweet pipe tobacco are some of the many notes that grace a Barbaresco, which is all about sublime elegance.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Gorgeous, bright fruit aromas highlight this generous and super well-balanced wine. A lively feel backed by medium to full tannins gives it an appetizing palate packed with raspberries, tart cherries and citrus accents.
Jeb Dunnuck: 92 Points
The ruby-hued 2021 Barbaresco is savory and ripe with aromas of medicinal herbs, cherry lozenge, sour cherries, salty earth, menthol, and licorice. Medium-bodied, it’s rich through the palate, with ripe tannins and notes of sanguine blood orange as well as iron-rich minerals on the finish. It offers good length and is a rather serious entry.
