97 points Luca Gardini: "From one of the main locations in Castiglione Falletto, a peculiar wine from a winery equally fundamental for the appellation. Bouquet of strawberry tree, with touches of juniper, laurel and blood orange peel. Mouth with savory tannins, finish with citrus-officinal return. (May 2022)"
95 points Kerin O'Keefe (Wine Enthusiast): "[$120 list] Capturing the freshness and finesse of the vintage, this has classic varietal aromas of rose petal, forest berry, camphor and underbrush. Reflecting the nose, the vibrant, focused palate delivers ripe red cherry, crushed raspberry, wild mint and star anise set against taut, refined tannins. Bright acidity keeps it balanced. While you won't have to wait years before enjoying this, it will also age at least another decade or more. Best 2024–2033. (Sep 2022)"
95 points Audrey Frick (Jeb Dunnuck): "The 2018 Barolo Bricco Boschis pours a deep ruby and has spiced and enveloping aromatics of cigar box, leather, pure red cherry, and turned earth. This medium-bodied red is approachable and graceful, with moderate tannins and good concentration in its notes of Earl Grey tea, blood orange, and raspberry liqueur. Drink 2024-2044. (May 2023)."
94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The Cavallotto 2018 Barolo Bricco Boschis (a certified organic wine) is a lovely expression with fruit from one of the most beautiful sites in Castiglione Falletto, measuring 7.3 hectares. The wine is streamlined and tight with forest berry, blackcurrant and spice. It is taut and silky, showing fruit that has been shaped by cool nights and warm days. Bricco Boschis always delivers a special sense of sharpness and focus. Drink: 2024-2040. (Jun 2022)"
94 points Decanter: "Muscular and powerful, don’t search for elegance here. Bricco Boschis is an old style Barolo typical of Alfio Cavallotto and his passion for authentic wines. The concentration and power are impressive for the 2018 vintage. Prunes and leather, leafy lightness, a touch of orange and an almost grapefruit note are sustained by firm acidity on a large, full, biting palate built for the long haul, filled out with youthful fruit concentration. Drinking Window: 2023-2039. (Jan 2022)"
