Critic Reviews

Wine Advocate
95 Points
95 Points, Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate: "The Fontanabianca 2021 Barbaresco Bordini, in the bottle with the black label, represents a step up in terms of focus and power over the village bottling. This wine is extremely direct and linear with red and purple fruits, crushed stone and herbs. Nebbiolo grapes come from 60-year-old vineyards. This is another historic family parcel near the Tanaro River on clay limestone soils with prominent veins of sand. This location means slightly warmer temperatures and more humidity in certain vintages. Otherwise, the quality of the soils contributes to the finesse and elegance of this wine..." 01/30/25

96 Points, Kerin Okeefe: "Showing intensity and elegance, the stunning 2021 Fontanabianca Bordini opens with heady aromas of ripe red berry, mocha, violet and a balsamic whiff of camphor. It’s utterly delicious, with flavors of raspberry compote, red cherry, star anise and cake spice that dance across the palate alongside taut, fine-grained tannins. Bright acidity keeps it beautifully balanced and vibrant while a saline note lingers on the finish..." 04/24

94 Points, James Suckling: "Fresh and floral in aroma, this medium-bodied wine offers charming rose petal, orange rind and rooibos tea aromas followed by tangy raspberries, citrus and red cherry tones with good depth and length on the finish..." 01/24

94 Points, Audrey Frick, Jeb Dunnuck: "Exhibiting a darker ruby/magenta color although it remains transparent, the 2021 Barbaresco Serraboella shows off a sunnier side of the vintage, with black raspberries, wet stone, violets, and sweet herbs. Medium-bodied, it fills the palate with ripe tannins, ripe, rounded, forward fruit, a heartier texture on the finish, and savory notes of tea leaf that linger on the palate. It’s ripe but light on its feet and does a good job of retaining freshness, as do all these wines from Fontanabianca. Drink 2025-2037..." 05/24
