Wine Advocate, 95 Points 

"The 2019 Barbaresco Bric Balin is distinguished by lots of wild berry fruit and a spicy hint of crushed white pepper that gives lift and immediacy to the bouquet. The tannins are quite firm in this wine and require more time to soften with bottle age. However, Bric Balin delivers overall elegance and length. This is a beautiful wine that is built for the long haul." 

James Suckling, 92 Points 

"Black cherries, strawberries and fresh flowers with stems on the nose. Medium to full body, firm tannins and a slightly chewy finish. Vanilla is coming through from the wood now, but it should come together with bottle age. Try after 2024." 

Wine Spectator, 92 Points 

"Well-marked by vanilla and toasty oak, this red supports cherry and currant flavors with vivid acidity and assertive tannins. Reveals ample fruit, ending with a hint of mint on the lingering finish."
