Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 96
"The 1996 Barolo Riserva Villero needs quite a bit of air to start showing everything it has. With time, though, the aromatics show tremendous depth and intensity. Hints of smoke, tobacco, leather and the deep, balsamic nuances that are so typical of this site start appear over time. A wine of balance, freshness and intensity, the 1996 Barolo Riserva Villero is simply stellar." -Vinous

Robert Parker

RP 96
"The estate’s 1996 Barolo Riserva Villero is outstanding. Layers of dark fruit, sweet spices, menthol and crushed rocks saturate the palate as this powerful, brooding wine shows off its pedigree. This intense Barolo makes a compelling case for the glories of the 1996 harvest. Flowers, minerals and a host of other dark, balsamic aromas and flavors add complexity on the brooding, dense finish. This is a phenomenal wine from Vietti."

Wine Spectator

WS 97
"Licorice and berry aromas, showing hints of flowers and spices. Full-bodied, with silky and caressing tannins and an aftertaste that goes on for minutes. Only made in the greatest years. A very special wine."

Wine Enthusiast

WE 93
"With its sweet dried fruits on the nose, and solid, almost dusty tannins and wood flavors, it has repaid the extra wood aging. The wine is only released six years after harvest and produced in small quantities."
