(2020) 17+ / 20 – Jancis Robinson – “Pale onion pink. Firm, minerally nose with aromatic hints of aromatic cranberry. Sappy and fresh cranberry and finely textured. Pretty impressive rosato and once you realise it is made of Nebbiolo you truly recognise it.” (Walter Speller – JancisRobinson.com)

(2020) 90 / 100 – Kerin O’Keefe – “Made entirely with Nebbiolo, this serious rosato opens with delicate scents of red forest berry, blue flower, dog rose and an unusual scent recalling beeswax. Vinified in steel tanks and aged for another six months in steel followed by bottle aging, the elegant palate offers crushed raspberry, sour cherry and apple before an almost salty saline finish. Bright acidity keeps it energized.” (Kerin O’Keefe – kerinokeefe.com)

(2020) 94 / 100 – Winepilot – “A lovely onion skin colour. Equal parts bitter and fresh on the palate, with orange rind, mandarin, amaro, preserved lemon. A shimmer of tannin to the sides, and lovely carry of dried rose, musk, and orange zest through the palate. This is not your throw-down Rosato, but a vinous, structured, and complex wine of textural complexity and savoury appeal. Delicious.” (Tom Kline – Winepilot)

(2019) 16.5 / 20 – Jancis Robinson – “Very pale salmon. A nose that is immediately recognisable as Nebbiolo with perfumed hints of cherry and raspberry and classic spicy undertones. Nervy, fresh and with a lemony twist on the finish. There is no hurry to drink this up. A very good rosato and surely has the potential to go a little bit more off-piste in future vintages. I, for one, would love to see this fermented in small casks, but others looking for a fine, linear style of rosés might disagree. Screwcap and beautiful label, and a wine that was really given time in the cellar, the whole oozes class and would look effortlessly cool at a top restaurant. This rocks!” (Walter Speller – JancisRobinson.com)
