Another solid vintage of this consistently great Barbaresco. This vintage seemed fuller and richer than many others. Beautiful nose of dried cherry, freshly turned soil, tobacco and tar. Touch of spice. Expressive pallet features dried cherry and raspberry, leather, black tea, balsamic vinegar. Hint of mint, orange and toasted nuts on the finish. Expressive and fresh tasting. Solid value. Thank You Kasey and Petey! — a day ago

Really a very nice barbaresco especially for the price. Lots of dark red (but not black) fruit and a good hit of spice. Not inaccessible even though it’s fairly young. Really enjoyed. — 16 days ago

In a great spot. Just reaching that liquid rock/seamless tannic/mineral phase. Needs a few years to loosen up the tertiary fruit a bit, but if you like molten lava drink@this bish — 19 days ago

Pora is a “lighter” cru and this was noticeable. At age nine I didn’t expect so much evolution into it’s tertiary stage. And this for colour, nose and taste. Don’t know if this is normal. But nevertheless a superb wine! I just wouldn’t keep it for more than another 5 years. — 9 days ago

Rustic. Dried cherries/cranberries, lots of tomato leaf, and dried herbs (thyme, rosemary, marjoram). Great with a pappardelle pork bolognese — 7 days ago

Hidden gem. Made with fruit from 3 hilltop vineyards. Raspberry jam, rose petal, leather. Beautiful tannins. Another one that delivers the next day. Perfect with Pastaria, while taking care of 3 kids, solo. — 15 hours ago

Bargain Barbaresco. Violet and faint red fruit aromas. Super tight on day 1, opens to cherry licorice with deep tannins on day 2. Great for stretching over a couple weeknights. Perfect with Loafers pizza. — a day ago

Still to have a really exceptional bottle of this producer. Lots of cherries and tar. Good but i think they is more value for money elsewhere — a month ago

Nose is very expressive with tar, roses and big time cherries and also cherry flower. Minerals and wood shavings. Clay? Gorgeous wild mint and major road tar. Really complex and expressive nose. Palate is juicy and clean. Elegant and compact. Lovely intensity but never heavy. Good concentration. Nice velvety tannins and very grippy. Long finish. Could use a few more years but wanted to check in. With air this has gotten so lovely. Sweet, silky, velvety and lovely mid season cherry attack. Amazingly pure and balanced. 9.3 to 9.4. — 14 days ago

Even 2010 was not as good vintage as in Barolo there are still excellent Barbarescos like this one. Nose screams Nebbiolo with ripe red berries, rose, some pine and licorice. On palate the wine does not quite match the nose but has nice sweet fruit that is hold by the midweight body. Tannins are still obvious and bit sandy with acidity that further supports the freshness. Finnish is just a tad short but regardless this is fully satisfying Barbaresco from one of the top producers — 23 days ago
