The 2018 Barbaresco Ronchi has a bit more textural depth than the straight Barbaresco, as it often does. Here, too, I would prefer to drink this sooner rather than later, as early signs of maturity are starting to come through. Sweet red plum, orange zest, cloves, new leather and anise build nicely over time. There's terrific weight and overall substance here. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, October 2022)
