Score 91/100 · Drink 2016-2024, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Jun 2014
The 2011 Barbaresco offers a very beautiful balance between the ripeness of its fruit and added spice layers obtained from two years of aging in botte grande. You can taste the youth of the wine in its evident fruit tones of plush cherry and dark prune, but you also get a sense of where the wine is headed down the road. The acidity and structure are well-suited for addition years of cellar aging. In terms of base Barbaresco from 2011, this wine certainly delivers the goods and offers great value along the way.
