92 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate"The Torraccia del Piantavigna 2013 Ghemme is a blend of 90% Nebbiolo and 10% Vespolina. The wine presents a very beautiful bouquet with subtle floral aromas behind dried cherry and blackberry. The flavor profile is...

96 points Wine Enthusiast"Mocha, blue flower, menthol and forest berry aromas lift out of the glass. Firmly structured but elegant, the linear palate exhibits pomegranate, wild strawberry, star anise and white pepper alongside a backbone of fine-grained...

95 points Robert Parker's Wine AdvocateFruit for this wine comes from a 1.2-hectare site with classic calcareous soils. The 2018 Barolo Brunate is very different from the other two wines in this portfolio. Brunate shows a higher level of intensity and...

95 points Wine Spectator"A complex red, this reveals multidimensional aromas and flavors of rose, cherry, licorice, mineral and spices. This is fused to a vibrant structure that, for now, gives a taut, almost racy profile. Marrying power and grace, this...

Jancis Robinson "Toasty, peachy nose, honeysuckle blossom on a scorching-hot day (although less toasty on day two, more honey-melon fruit). On the palate: a triple twist of honeyed fruit, brioche toast toasted to almost char, and fine winding bitterness...

97 points Vinous"The 2016 Bramaterra is fabulous. Deep and exquisitely layered, the 2016 possesses stunning depth and textural nuance to burn. Rose petal, lavender, red/purplish fruit, cedar, tobacco and licorice all build in the glass. The 2016 is a...

Jancis Robinson"Fermented with selected indigenous yeast – half in large cask and half in stainless – followed by six months on the lees.Brilliant, intense straw. Minerally with hints of iodine, bread crust, Lebanese lemon preserve and orange...

Vinous Reverie NotesThe third wine in Fabio "ass" series (along with Cul Otte and Back Grin), this wine's label has hints of blue on the logo's sickle and the letters "ss" after DNA. This is a subtle hint to the wine's unique vinification in water...

Jancis Robinson"A Ruché with passito, or dried, grapes and more interesting than many Amarone.This has bags of character. Impenetrable dark ruby. Notes of dark cherry and orange marmalade on the nose. The passito method used here...
