93 points Wine Spectator: "A powerful, superb wine with wonderful harmony. Floral, berry and mineral aromas. Full-bodied, with a serious concentration of fruit, with ripe plums and spices as well. Full tannins with wonderful polish. Long finish. Best after 2006. 150 cases made. (12/31/00)"
92 points Robert Parker: "The amazing 1995 Barolo Mosconi Per Cristina Riserva (aged in 100% new oak, and lovingly named after Clerico's seven-year old daughter who died tragically) is the richest, most complete of these offerings. This debut vintage offers up kirsch, Chinese black tea, flowers, licorice, and subtle spicy new oak. Amazingly rich and full-bodied, with terrific purity, symmetry, and length, it can be drunk now, but should be even better with 2-3 years of cellaring; it will keep for 12-15 years. One of the most gifted winemakers in Piedmont, Domenico Clerico has fashioned this riveting wine from the vineyards surrounding the village of Monforte d'Alba. Clerico utilizes rotary fermenters, and new oak. This a wine of extraordinary richness, amazing aromatics, and a sensual personality that satiates both the hedonistic and intellectual senses. (Aug 1999)"
