James Suckling · 2 Jan 2025 · 2022

“Intense and fruity nose of dried cherries, plum skin and hints of sweet spices and stones. Dry and velvety on the palate, it has a medium body with dusty tannins. Focused and balanced. Drink now.”

Decanter Magazine · 18 Nov 2024 · 2022

“This is a fresh, floral Barbara d’Asti Superiore with aromatics of dried cherries, sweet hints of cinnamon stick and generous notes of dried rose petals. It’s very pretty on the palate, with dusty red berry fruits, dried lavender, and piquant notes of spicy blood orange. It finishes fresh and refined, a nice wine at a welcoming price point.”
