99 points Luca Maroni (7/3/20).

97 points Luca Gardini: "This 100% Ruchè comes from a selection of the ripest grapes from the best estate vineyards. The vinification involves partial drying of the bunches and partial overripening of the fruit on the vines. It is characterized by a ruby red color that turns to garnet after a few years of bottle aging. The scent is intense and persistent, with suggestions of rose petals and wild berries in jam. In the mouth it is warm and persuasive, elegant, with great agility. Pair with mushroom or stewed red meat risotto; a perfect complement to medium-aged cheeses."

Three Glasses, Gambero Rosso: "The Laccento '19 features hints of roses and pepper, red fruit and tobacco. The palate is powerful, but also marked by great finesse and harmony, with soft, close-knit tannins and beautiful length."
