James Suckling (94)- "This has lovely ripe fruit, with rich plum and peach fruit on the nose, plus hazelnut, orange and bread crust too. It’s full-bodied, creamy and textured with melt-in-your-mouth tannins. Delicious finish."
Vinous Media (92)- "The 2020 Barolo Vigneto Garretti is a plump, juicy Barolo that will delight La Spinetta fans. A burst of dark red/purplish fruit, herbs, flowers, vanillin and sweet oak makes a strong first impression. Soft contours add immediacy and charm. The 2020 is very nicely done."
Wine Advocate (94)- "The La Spinetta 2019 Barolo Garretti opens to a crisp, almost tart quality with red fruit, cassis, pomegranate and a hint of red apple. Those bright primary tones cede to spice and earthy mineral or baked clay. The wine is distinguished by a pretty hint of licorice root that cuts a line throughout the entire bouquet. The 2019 vintage shows extra finesse and structure to the palate."
