"Lots of rose petals and botanicals on the nose with cherries and dried peaches. Full-bodied with chewy tannins that are juicy and plush. Flavorful and very long. Lots going on here. Very solid and crisp. Drink in four or five years. Best after 2027."

"The 2021 Barbaresco Vigneto Valeirano is a complex, dynamic wine that captures all the presence of Treiso. This fruit is picked a bit riper, needed to soften the tannins, so the flavor profile is a bit racier. Even so, I am drawn to the wine's complexity, nuance and detail. It's a gorgeous wine."
