94 JS. "This is a very ripe expression of Barbaresco, packed with leather, dried fruit, tea leaves, and earth. A sense of balance to the unyielding acidity pervades the full-bodied palate, though, and provides a welcome contrast to the rich, fully stacked layers of dried cherries and cedar. Nevertheless, this remains a chewy, flamboyant style that will need time." James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, Aug 2019 |
