96 points Audrey Frick (JebDunnuck.com): "On pouring, the 2020 Barolo Monvigliero appears paler in the glass compared to the others tasted in this vertical of Monvigliero, but it opens to become spicy, bright, and complete, with notes of strawberries, spice, fresh flowers, cinnamon, and dusty earth. A great wine with the most distinct sense of place, it offers a tightrope of fine tannins, a snappy spine of acidity, and a long finish, with a fresh, balanced, and age-worthy feel as well as savory, mouthwatering tension and mineral undercurrents. Drink it over the next 20 years. Drink between 2024-2044. (5/13/24)"
95 points Kerin O'Keefe: "You’ll find aromas recalling ripe dark-skinned fruit, violet, forest floor and brown exotic spice on the alluring 2020 Monvigliero from Fratelli Alessandria. Full-bodied and elegantly structured, the succulent, enveloping palate features ripe Morello cherry, crushed raspberry, baking spice and licorice before a saline mineral close. A backbone of velvety tannins provides support. It’s already almost at the start of its ideal drinking window where it will maintain for another decade or so. Drink: 2026–2035. Abv: 14.5%.
