2020 Barolo, Coste di Rose, G.D. Vajra
~ (93) Antonio Galloni , Vinous 11-1-2023
White pepper, dried roses, berries and mineral on the nose. Really elegant and chalky on the palate with medium to full body and a linear finish. Pure and driven. Drink or hold. ~ (94) James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 1-9-2024
Pale ruby. Lifted orange oil, rose, cherry blossom, and red currant – very fresh. Fresh, mouth-watering, high acidity. Incredibly bright and vibrant – lots of energy. Very fine, sandy tannin. ~ (17) Samantha Cole-Johnson, JancisRobinson.com 8-8-2024
Aged for 28 months in cask, the bright ruby 2020 Barolo Coste Di Rose was a little more reserved at this tasting. It reveals a hint of blood orange citrus along with its notes of cola, ripe strawberries, and raspberries. Medium-bodied, it has finely tensioned tannins and a clean, mouthwatering finish. It’s a very pretty wine. Drink 2026-2046. ~ (96) Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck.com 5-13-2024
A beam of fresh cherry and strawberry permeates this graceful red, driven by a vibrant structure. Flashes of sun-kissed hay, iron and mint add depth as this cruises to a lingering conclusion. Very harmonious, with a chalky sensation on the long, complex aftertaste. Best from 2028 through 2050. 400 cases made, 200 cases imported. ~ (96) Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator 11-30-2024
