Barbaresco Pora Riserva Produttori del Barbaresco 2021 (750ML)

95 Points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "From a 10.5-hectare vineyard rooted in limestone-rich soils, the Produttori del Barbaresco 2021 Barbaresco Riserva Pora opens my annual tasting of the Riservas. I usually start with Pora because of its fine, silky personality and its more accessible fruit profile, which leans toward primary aromas of sweet cherry and raspberry. The 2021 vintage adds an extra layer of precision, delivering a wine of remarkable focus and definition, yet there is a moment of youthful fleshiness on the mid-palate. Fermented in stainless steel and aged in large oak botti, this wine captures the graceful side of Barbaresco while showcasing the exceptional balance of the vintage. This is a 20,000-bottle release." 07/26

96 Points, Kerin O'Keefe, KerinOKeefe.com: "Riserva is a stunning, generous wine, with great aromas and layers of delicious flavors including succulent raspberry, Morello cherry, star anise and blood orange. While it’s already immensely enjoyable, it also has a long life ahead. Abv: 14.5% Kerin O'Keefe September 2025" 09/25

95 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "The 2021 Barbaresco Riserva Pora is a fabulous introduction to the single-vineyard wines in this range. Pliant and resonant in the glass, the 2021 impresses with its solid core of fruit and exceptional balance. A wine of depth and structure, the Pora is compelling. Wild cherry fruit, spice, new leather and blood orange fill out the layers. This is an especially fine Pora. There is so much to look forward to." 10/25

95 Points, Aldo Fiordelli, JamesSuckling.com: "Classic and intense yet fresh, showing sweet-violet and cherry-pit aromas, this is slightly mineral and savory with graceful balsamic depth. Medium-bodied and approachable with velvety tannins wrapped in dried flowers, tight yet interwoven in the very long finish. March 2026 release. Drink or hold." 11/25
