96 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "[$107 list] The 2016 Barolo Bric del Fiasc is a powerful, muscular wine. Youthfully austere and tannic, the 2016 is going to need a number of years to come around, but it is magnificent, even in the early going. Layers of building tannins enshroud a core of dark Nebbiolo fruit, with hints of dried herbs, iron, leather and sweet tobacco that develop with a bit of coaxing. As always, Bric del Fiasc has a feral intensity to it. The 2016 is an especially fine edition and also a terrific example of the style of this Castiglione Falletto site. Drink: 2026-2041. (Feb 2020)"
96 points Wine Spectator: "[$107 list] This vibrant red is concentrated and supple, bursting with cherry, plum, licorice and eucalyptus aromas and flavors. Offers a sense of elegance, with a slightly chewy texture, along with excellent length. Best from 2023 through 2040. 275 cases imported. (9/16/20)"
95 points James Suckling: "Very aromatic with roses, strawberries and some cherry blossom, too. Medium to full body and firm, silky tannins with finesse and intensity at the same time. Try after 2022. (8/5/20)"
