La Spinetta Description
A soft and persuasive Barbaresco. Velvety tannins and great body define this wine, that ends with a fruity finish and floral note.
Wine Advocate: 93 Points
The 2007 Barbaresco Vigneto Gallina is focused and nicely articulated. This is a rather firm, nuanced Gallina from La Spinetta with gorgeous length, tons of detail and fabulous overall balance. It is at once more concentrated and also deeper than the Bordini, so another few years in bottle seem a prerequisite. The Gallina is the most improved wine the estate’s lineup. The 2007 is quite possibly the most polished, elegant Gallina I have ever tasted here.

Wine Spectator: 92 Points
There are some wild notes here, but overall it's the licorice, plum, tar and savory flavors that make this appealing. Firm and tight, with a layer of stern tannins, this is set to age well.
