94 points Aldo Fiordelli (Decanter): "Forget baby Nebbiolo! This assertive wine from Vietti is a stylish Langhe with a sleek nose and bracing palate. Bright ruby in the glass, it has telltale Nebbiolo aromas of rosehip and orange peel. Strawberry fruit is accompanied by firm, polished tannins, crisp acidity, and an amazing rhubarb savouriness that carries the finish. It comes from a selection of grapes grown in both Barolo and Barbaresco, mostly on the classic combination of limestone and clay. The wine is than aged for two years in Slavonian oak casks. Drinking Window: 2021-2028. (May 2021)"
Offers up generous fruit along with menthol, spices and hard candy, showing notable intensity while retaining an essentially mid-weight style. Strong, intense and powerful when young, complex and elegant with the ageing. Food Pairings: Hearty stew, wild game, roasted red meats and sharp, aged cheeses.
