98 points Falstaff: "Brightening, radiant ruby garnet. Great and expressive nose, candied citrus peel, raspberries, freshly baked brown bread, some candied rose petal, in the echo cinchona bark. Melting palate, with clear, bright fruit, tightly woven, with lots of juicy tannin, hearty, punchy, rich wild berry fruit, very long. Alcohol 14%. (10/6/23)"
97 points Kerin O'Keefe: "This stunning Barolo opens with enticing scents of baking spice, blue flower and perfumed berry. Structured but extremely elegant, the taut palate features juicy cherry, raspberry, cinnamon and ground clove alongside seasoned tannins. Drink: 2025–2044. (Oct 2022)"
96 points Luca Gardini: "One of the essential products of the Langhe, very rare and original. From vineyards in Cannubi, San Lorenzo and Ravera, nose of red currant, touches of blood orange and peony. The mouthfeel is juicy, with salty tannins and a citrus and floral finish. (Sep 2023)"
95 points Aldo Fiordelli (Decanter): "Tre Tine is Rinaldi's blend of Ravera (60%), Le Coste (20%) and Cannubi San Lorenzo (20%), confirmed on the cork. Harvest began in the middle of October with the southern expositions such as Cannubi and Le Coste, and ended with Ravera, a late-ripening southeast-facing site close to the forest. ‘In 2019 we had cool nights and the grapes were properly ripe,’ said Carlotta Rinaldi. Sweet violet dominates the nose, allied to restrained blood orange, wild strawberry and a whiff of funkiness; volatile acidity here is slightly received. The attack is refreshing, with juicy, velvety tannins leading to an elegant finish. Drinking Window: 2023-2045. (Jan 2023)"
95 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2019 Barolo Tre Tine is elegant and gracious to the core. Lifted, sensual aromatics make a strong first impression. In most vintages the Tre Tine has been a bit more tannic, but the 2019 has a level of refinement that I have not seen in the past. Rose petal, kirsch, lavender, cedar, sweet pipe tobacco and orange peel lend striking inner sweetness and perfume. The 2019 is classic in feel, but not at all forbidding or austere. I loved it. Drink: 2029-2049. (Jan 2023)"
