Score 90/100 · Drink 2016-2026, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Apr 2019

Like the other Barbaresco expressions from Pellissero, the 2012 Barbaresco Vanotu shaves off more notes of cedar wood and coffee and brings even softer tannins that wrap thickly over the palate.

Score 94/100 · Drink 2017-2027, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2015

The 2012 Barbaresco Vanotu has the potential to be one of the wines of the vintage. Aromatically beguiling and beautifully layered in the glass, the Vanotu boasts serious depth and terrific overall balance. Hard candy, wild flowers, mint, lavender, black cherries and spices are laced into the super-expressive finish. The 2012 was aged in 80% new oak, all of which the wine has handled deftly.
