Barbaresco Valeirano Riserva La Spinetta di G. Rivetti 2009 (1.5L)

97 Points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Made only in magnum and released 10 years after the harvest, La Spinetta's 2009 Barbaresco Riserva Valeirano Vürsù (Magnum) ushers forth an amazing experience based on dark fruit, spice, smoke, balsam herb and grilled rosemary. The wine has moved forward along its aging trajectory but slowly and surely, revealing carefully measured evolution on the one hand and primary intensity on the other. You feel those 10 years of Nebbiolo-aging in the mouth, where silky tannins meet a mid-weight feel with good richness and concentration. A mere 600 magnums exist, and this is a bottle for cellar-keeping." 07/20
