Nicolas Belfrage: Bright, attractive color with slight rim. Poetic, floral nose. Has the mythical Serralunga structure but also plenty of herb, flower, and fruit components. Strong and firm, mouth-filling and complex, an outstanding wine that goes on and on. Needs to be sipped to be appreciated. Drink from 2020. 98

Bruno Besa: Transparent garnet to tawny. A touch closed and spirity yet complex and mineral, with small red fruits, cedarwood, smoked meat, road tar, and violets. A balanced palate with sweet red fruit and great tannic grip yet elegant and long. Another classic Serralunga Barolo. What a joy. 92

Andrew Jefford: Very clear and translucent. Graceful chiffon scents, all fine cherry and blossom on the breeze; shut your eyes, and you could almost be in Chambolle. Very delicious on the palate, and disconcertingly easy of access; it slides on to the tongue like mist, and before you know it you’ve swallowed. Very graceful traditional cellar work here. The fruit qualities are outstanding: no question. So, is there a question? Might we have wished for just a little more extractive force? I’m sure such a stylistically assured wine has legions of followers who would shout, “No!” But... well, I’m only asking. Wonderful fruit, poise, restraint, grace, and finesse. 90
