96 points Luca Gardini: "From one of the historic crus of the municipality of Neive, a Barbaresco of structure and finesse. Blueberries on the nose, with balsamic touches of
eucalyptus and licorice. Savory-salty tannins on the palate, nice persistence with balsamic return. (Jun 2022)."
95 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The 2019 Barbaresco Gallina Vürsù is a beautiful wine with delicate aromas of forest fruit, cassis, spice, earthy truffle and grilled herb. This tight, lean-bodied wine (in a heavy glass bottle) has firm tannins and a very long, elegant finish. Drink: 2024-2040. (Aug 2022)."
94 points Wine Spectator: "Aromatic, this red features raspberry, cherry, floral, iron, tar and tobacco aromas and flavors. A dense matrix of tannins lends support and this cruises to a lingering aftertaste. Shows fine harmony and potential. Best from 2026 through 2045. (Oct 2022)."
17.5/20 points Walter Speller (Jancis Robinson): "Neive. Mid ruby. Deep and rich on the nose like Nebbiolo on steroids. Sweet, intense raspberry and cassis fruit palate that is more than a tad international and, it must be said, skilfully oaked. Firm, ripe, polished tannins that are undeniably beautifully rendered. It is impressive in every way, even too much so for me. Can't wait to see how this ages. Drink 2022-2034 (Jun 2022)."
