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."
The Wine Advocate (93)- "The La Spinetta 2021 Barbaresco Bordini, with organic fruit from the village of Neive, offers a voluptuous interpretation of Nebbiolo with fragrant tones of rose, blue flowers and sweet cherry on the close. The wine delivers more heft and fruit weight overall with pretty notes of crushed aspirin on the finish. It also tastes a bit stemmy with rosemary and dried herb."
Wine Spectator (93)- "Offering a mix of balsamic and savory aromas and flavors, this red reveals notes of eucalyptus, mint, juniper, black currant and raspberry. Sleek and firmly structured, with intense fruit and a mineral element prevailing in the end. Balanced, this just needs a few years to integrate. Best from 2028 through 2043. 1,083 cases made, 361 cases imported. "
