Score 95/100 · James Suckling, Nov 2016

This is really exotic with dried rose petal, berry and walnut character. Medium to full body, velvety tannins and a fruity finish. Needs time to develop but already fascinating. Drink or hold.

The 2013 Barbaresco Vigneto Valeirano is a powerhouse. Tannic, rough around the edges and virile in its expression, the 2013 is going to need at least few years in bottle to shed some of its tannin. The flavors are deep and boldly sketched, with the acidity of the vintage and the incisive Treiso tannins adding brightness throughout. Sweet dark cherries, cinnamon, new leather and menthol meld into the powerful, tannic finish.
