The 2018 Barbaresco Asili Vecchie Viti is often one of my favorites in the range, as it is again this year. Silky tannins, sweet perfumed aromatics, succulent cherty fruity and cedar are some of the aromas and flavors that grace this wonderfully expressive, caressing Barbaresco. Luca Roagna nailed the balance here. The 2018 is ethereal, but also not light. If anything, it has plenty to say. This should be terrific with a bit of time in bottle. -- Vinous

Showing succulent cherry, raspberry, rose hip, eucalyptus, green tea and white pepper aromas and flavors, this expressive red is bursting with energy, while moderate tannins shore up the terrific saline aftertaste. Offers fine balance. -- Wine Spectator
