"Aromas of camphor, new leather, sunbaked soil and a whiff of violet shape the nose on this enthralling wine. Full bodied and boasting a concentrated depth of delicious flavors, the structured linear palate delivers mature Morello cherry, blood orange, star anise and tobacco set against a backbone of firm but refined tannins. Fresh acidity provides balance. Drink 2027–2040." 

"A creamy texture sets the stage for spiced plum and cherry flavors while the vibrant acidity and dense matrix of tannins lend support. There is a lot to like overall even if this red is a bit compact brooding and less expressive today. The fine length reveals its potential. Best from 2023 through 2045." 

"The 2015 Barbaresco Pajè Vecchie Viti is beautifully perfumed and lifted from the very first taste. There is an element of translucence to the 2015 that is utterly beguiling. Rose petal mint sweet red cherry spice and new leather all grace this understated alluring Barbaresco. All the elements fall into place effortlessly."
