Barbaresco Bordini La Spinetta 2019 (750ML)

94 points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate: “La Spinetta's 2019 Barbaresco Bordini opens to a wide and ample set of Nebbiolo aromas spanning from Morello cherry and plum, to dark earth and spicy licorice. This is a solid, mid-weight expression and a wine that ultimately lasts long on the palate thanks to the density and quality of its texture.” 06/22

93 points, James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com: “The roses and lemon leaf come through in the nose, with a palate of cherries and plums. Medium-bodied with chewy yet fine tannins and a medium finish. A year or two will soften this. Drink after 2024.” 10/22

93 points, Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator: “Both rich and dense, this Barbaresco exhibits aromas and flavors of black cherry, blackberry, iron, underbrush and earth. Dense and persistent, with fine balance overall and a lingering finish. Best from 2026 through 2042. 1,080 cases made, 75 cases imported.” 12/22
