96 points Antoni Galloni (Vinous): “The 2018 Bramaterra is captivating from the very first taste. Sweet, perfumed and almost intoxicatingly beautiful, the 2018 possesses striking inner sweetness and huge depth, marrying power and elegance to a degree I have not seen in previous vintages. As alluring as the 2018 is today, it is most certainly a wine to put away for at least a handful of years. I especially admire its explosive energy. This is the first vintage made with stems, about 35%. Drink 2025-2036 (Nov 2022).”

17.5/20 points Walter Speller (JancisRobinson.com): “80% Nebbiolo, 20% Vespolina and Croatina. Spontaneous fermentation in open tronconic oak casks with 18% whole bunches and 35% stalks added. Aged for 18 months in large Slavonian oak casks.Mid ruby. Inviting, complex nose of red fruit and cherry, with a spicy, stalky nose adding depth. Suave and cool on the palate with gorgeous, fine, grainy tannins running through the cool fruit on the palate. Challenges many a Barolo 2018 in complexity.(May 2023)”
