Jeb Dunnuck (93)- "Looking at the first of four Barbaresco, the 2022 Barbaresco Bordini is floral and inviting on the nose, and has fruity aromas of preserved strawberries, herbes de Provence, crushed flowers, and sweet herbs. The palate is medium-bodied, with a good deal of intensity upfront, as well as fine tannins, snappy, angular acidity, and a nervous energy at this early stage. It will likely improve in another 6-12 months and can be enjoyed over the coming 10 years."
Vinous Media (92)- "The 2022 Barbaresco Vigneto Bordini is a fine effort from La Spinetta. Crushed flowers, sweet red cherry fruit, cedar and pipe tobacco lend notable aromatic presence. This mid-weight, open-knit Barbaresco makes for a fine middle step into Giorgio Rivetti's top wines."
James Suckling (95)- "Lots of flower petal, dried strawberry, cedar and milk chocolate character on the nose and palate. Medium- to full-bodied with tannins that build on the palate and are long and consistent. Turns soft at the end as it grows on the palate. Better in 2027 and on onwards."
