A recent discovery; one of Noah's new favorites!

Wine Enthusiast: 95 Points

Black raspberries, medicinal herbs and spiced tea dominate the aromatic profile. The firm palate reveals that the fruit is at the core, surrounded by sweet and savory spices, including notes of cigar box and worn leather. Mouthwatering acidity adds to its appeal. Drink from 2025–2045

James Suckling: 94 Points

Sophisticated aromas of nutmeg, dark berry, dried meat, citrus peel and dry earth follow through to a full-bodied palate with polished, chewy tannins that give length and tension to the wine. Plenty going on here. Try after 2024.

Wine Advocate: 94 Points

The 2020 Barbaresco Bordini (with fruit from the village of Neive) shows medium-rich density with more texture and structure in this vintage. The Bordini is a little more austere in character and hearty overall. That extra stuffing is accompanied by an open-knit approach that makes this wine approachable in the medium term. Or you could wait, if that's your choice. Some 10,000 bottles were released.

Wine Spectator: 93 Points

A fleshy version, this red exhibits cherry, strawberry, mint and earth notes backed by a firm, vibrant structure. Though this finishes on the austere side now, there is freshness and a lingering fruit and savory aftertaste. Best from 2026 through 2045. 1,250 cases made, 100 cases imported.
