94 points and 'Cellar Selection,' Wine Enthusiast: "[$55 list] Rose, violet, forest-berry and wild herb aromas fill the glass on this fragrant red. Firmly structured yet loaded with finesse, the linear palate shows strawberry, red cherry, star anise and menthol set against assertive fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. It's still youthfully austere but balanced. Drink 2024–2036. Alcohol 14.5%. (Sep 2020)"
93 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "[$56 list] Alessandria’s 2016 Barolo is a fabulous choice for readers looking for a wine that won’t break the bank. Freshly cut roses, blood orange, red berry fruit, white pepper, chalk and bright acids all pulse through the 2016. A Barolo of energy and cut, the 2016 needs at least a few years in bottle to soften, but it is so impressive today. Drink: 2024-2036. (Oct 2020)"
