James Suckling: 95 Punkte "Gorgeous aromas of lavender, tile, ripe strawberries and some cherries. Full-bodied with a very tight, linear palate with ultra-fine yet strong tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Really finely crafted. Fantastic blend of grapes from vineyards around the town of Barolo."

Robert Parker Wine Advocat: 92 Punkte "This 5500-bottle release displays a blend of fruit limites to the comune (or village) of barolo in the heart of the appellation. The Virna 2016 Barolo di barolo casts a wide net of aromas, with lots of deep, dark plummy aromas that emerge with a notible level of openness and accessibility. This is a loosely knit Barolo with soft tannins and generous fruit, spice, tar and licorice on the finish. This is a solid near on medium term drinking oprtion that soon could serve as your go-to dinner party wine."
