95 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The Comm. G.B. Burlotto 2020 Barolo has delicate floral aromas with almond blossom and red fruits. To the palate, the wine shows a very tight and compact texture, tonic and polished, with lingering lavender bud, some grilled herb, sour cherry, tart flavors, glossy tannins and nice acidity. This is one for the purists. Drink: 2026-2045. (Apr 2024)"
95 points Luca Gardini: "Derived from traditional assembly practices, from different vineyards, the usual wisdom and formal completeness of the Burlotto house. The aroma opens with notes of wild plum, with nuances of rhubarb and rosemary. On the palate is taut, dense and savory. Great aftertaste. (Apr 2024)"
93 points Audrey Frick (JebDunnuck.com): "Medium red in color, the 2020 Barolo is inviting and fruity. Its characteristic elegant profile features notes of pristinely preserved strawberries, candied roses, apricot, and sweet tea. Medium-bodied and fresh, with delicate, sweet fruit floating through the palate, it has ultra-fine tannins, and a clean, long finish. It’s easy to love this now, and it will have a wide open window for enjoyment over the next 5-7 years. Drink: 2024-2031. (May 2024)"
92 points Kerin O'Keefe: "The 2020 classic Barolo from Comm. G.B. Burlotto embodies the accessible nature of the friendly vintage. It’s ethereally elegant, offering aromas of dog rose, camphor and dark spice while the graceful palate shows juicy strawberry, star anise and white pepper. Lithe tannins provide seamless support. Drink through 2030. (Jan 2024)"
