93 points Wine Spectator: "This fresh, raspberry-flavored red is accented by eucalyptus and light spice notes. There's grip on the finish, courtesy of stiff tannins, but time will bring the fruit and structure together. Best from 2014 through 2032. 1,600 cases made, 100 cases imported. (11/30/11)"
93 points James Suckling: "This is a beautiful Barolo that shows the warmth and generosity of the vintage, with wonderful plum, hazelnut and dried-rose aromas. It's full- to medium-bodied, with soft tannins that have melted into the wine. Fresh and crisp as well. Drinks beautifully now but will improve for years ahead. (9/14/14)"
92 points Antonio Galloni (Wine Advocate): "Dark fruit, mocha, espresso, menthol, licorice and spices are some of the notes that emerge from the 2007 Barolo Bussia. This powerful, sensual wine possesses tons of depth and richness to match its muscular, virile tannins. The wine fleshes out nicely through to the warm, resonating finish. This is a beautiful effort from Prunotto. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027. (Oct 2011)"
92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Prunotto's wines are easily available in the United States and make a perfect option for those of us who just can't get enough of the Nebbiolo grape. This elegant wine opens with tones of pressed violet, cola, natural rubber and menthol. The wine shows a healthy, vibrant feel with tannins that could use five more years of aging. (Sep 2011)"
