Professional Ratings

• 94 Wine Spectator
  Broad and savory, boasting cherry, leather, tobacco, wild thyme and eucalyptus notes. A sweet fruit essence offsets the dense tannins. The finish stretches out. Best from 2018 through 2032.
• 94 Wine & Spirits

  Scents of roses, cherries and mint give this wine a lifted feeling that follows through with flavors of fleshy red berries and buoyant acidity. The Pajè cru enjoys cooling breezes from the Tanaro River, keeping the fruit fresh and contributing to this wine’s brisk acidity and aromatic elegance. Its firm texture and bright flavors hold as it gains notes of black tea and fennel, lending depth as the wine coasts to a long and lively finish.

• 93 Wine Enthusiast

  Bold and full bodied, this opens with rather subtle aromas of chopped herb, dark-skinned berry and a whiff of star anise. The ripe palate is more expressive, doling out black raspberry, juicy morello cherry and baking spice set against a backbone of noble tannins.

• 92 James Suckling

  You can smell the ripe grapes here. Undertones of cedar and sweet tobacco. Full body, velvety and soft tannins and a flavorful finish.
