97 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2020 Gattinara Molsino is a dark, brooding Gattinara. Black cherry, plum, licorice, crushed rocks, lavender and spice all race across the palate. A wine of somber intensity, the 2020 is built for the long haul. Deep and beguiling, firm tannins enshroud the long, building finish. Drink: 2028-2050. (Feb 2024)"
95 points Audrey Frick (JebDunnuck.com): "The 2020 Gattinara Molsino initially seems incredibly fresh and minty, presenting a more angular profile, with rocky notes of iron-rich earth. Offering both ripe tannins and ripe structure, it feels elegant but has a more rigid backbone. That being said, it’s going to take time to soften, but it’s worth cellaring for those with the patience to do so. Drink: 2026-2040. (5/13/24)"
94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The Conterno Nervi 2020 Gattinara Vigna Molsino is Barolo-like in character, says vintner Roberto Conterno, although Gattinara tends to be a little warmer throughout the year compared to Barolo, thus rendering a more generous and immediate side of Nebbiolo. This wine is layered with dark fruit, spice and sweet earth. The Vigna Valferana is more mineral and vertical in character, whereas this wine is textured and velvety. Indeed, its name Molsino is a derivative of a local word for "soft." Drink: 2025-2040. (Jan 2025)"
