Score 89/100 · Drink 2018-2025, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Feb 2019
The 2015 Barolo Vigneto Garretti is plush, rich and ample on the palate, with plenty of succulent dark cherry and plum fruit pushed forward. The ripeness of the year is very much in evidence in this voluptuous Barolo, and yet there is just enough aromatic lift to give the wine freshness and brightness. The Vigneto Garretti emerges from the lower slopes of La Spinetta's estate vineyard in Grinzane Cavour.

The tar and roses are certainly here on the nose with ripe fruit, too. Full-bodied, dense and chewy with beautiful fruit and length. Chewy, polished and compact. Needs two or three years to soften. Drink from 2022.
