Wine Advocate: 91 Points
Parusso's 2016 Langhe Nebbiolo definitely sticks out in a crowded field. This informal red wine opens to a dark and richly concentrated appearance. The bouquet is perfumed and detailed with layers of black fruit, exotic spice, mulberry and dried rose petal. Those bold Nebbiolo aromas are delivered with gusto and intensity. Fruit is harvested on the overripe side and then soaked in order to soften the stems ahead of processing. This results in extra power, richness and concentration. Ultimately, the wine shows balance too within that larger framework of opulence and concentration.
James Suckling: 90 Points
Blueberry tart, dried violets, lavender, cloves, vanilla and baking spices. Medium body, medium-chewy tannins and a vanilla-loaded finish. Quite an attractive, fun wine at the end.
