"The 2008 Barbaresco Vigneto Valeirano comes across as quite clenched and austere, which it always is, to some degree. It possesses plenty of energy and power, just not enough depth to balance its French oak. The finish is big, massive and tannic. If this fills out, it will merit a higher score down the road. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025." - Antonio Galloni (Wine Advocate)

Vinous
Good full red. Ripe strawberry and rose petal on the perfumed, slightly liqueur-like nose, with a peachy nuance emerging with aeration. Plush, sweet and vibrant, with terrific sappy energy to the flavors of red fruits and spices. Finishes perfumed and very long, with the sweetest tannins of this set of 2008 Barbarescos. This is at another level of quality.
