95 points Jacobo GarcÃa Andrade (JamesSuckling.com): "Aromas of roses, violets, blue fruit and some earthy tile notes. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with refined tannins and a very warm, cozy, enveloping core of pretty fruit that’s persistent. Best ever from here. A joy to taste now, but better in a couple of years. (1/10/25)"
95 points Kerin O'Keefe: "Hay, blood orange and red woodland berry aromas mingle with balsamic scents of eucalyptus and wild herb. Savory, elegant and racy, the vibrant palate shows red cherry, truffle, star anise and blood orange alongside firm acidity and tightly knit, fine-grained tannins. Give this plenty of time to unwind. Drink 2031–2041. (Oct 2024)"
93 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): "[$45 list] There’s a menthol cast to the cherry and raspberry fruit in this red, all backed by a line of stiff, compact tannins. Nonetheless, the finish on this is extremely long, with the fruit and savory essence persisting alongside a mineral hint. Best from 2029 through 2046. (10/22/25)"
92 points Ian D'Agata Wine Review: "Good lively red colour. Initially pungent scents of watermelon and star anise, then a little muted. Shows good sweetness of fruit flavours and vibrant liveliness on the long close. Very good commune-level Barolo that is essentially ready to drink now, though it will keep too. Drinking window: 2028-2037. (5/9/25)"
