96 points & 'Editors' Choice' Wine Enthusiast: "[$93 list] This is a no-nonsense wine loaded with complexity and depth, but in its core is pure joy. Aromas of sun-warmed crushed raspberries and black cherries mingle with fresh thyme, while clove, anise and cinnamon stick lift the nose. The well-structured palate is a dance between fresh and preserved wild berries, guided by lively acidity. Savory spice, herbs and white pepper linger on the finish, revealing a wine that's serious, but just wants to have fun. Drink now–2035. (Nov 2024)" 95 points James Suckling: "A complex, beguiling barbera with layered aromas of licorice, sweet violets, earth, leather, restrained black cherries and plums. Medium- to full-bodied with flavors of oak bark and graphite, showing smoky complexity, velvety tannins and zesty yet integrated acidity. Long, chocolaty and warming finish. Drink or hold. (Feb 2025)"
95 points Falstaff Guide: "Medium transparent garnet red with a slightly brightening rim. Very clear and clean on the nose, with appealing fruit aromas of ripe cherries and wild berries, as well as hints of bread crust and light balsamic notes. Very juicy on the palate with finely-meshed tannins, beautiful structure and well-integrated 16% alcohol as well as a very long finish. (10/16/24)"
