"The wine has a garnet-color and ruby-red reflections with a slight orange note. The nose is ethereal, fresh, elegant and very persistent, with hints of violet, rose, liquorice and sweet spices. In the mouth the flavor is long and intense. To be served in crystal glasses with very large bowls." —winemaker

"Pretty berry fruit like raspberries and hawthorn berries here, plus hazelnuts and orange rind. It’s bright and beautifully balanced with a medium to full body and an elegant frame of firm yet tight-knit tannins. Delicious finish. Best after 2027." —James Suckling
"Deceptively understated, the 2020 Barolo La Serra is a nuanced wine that beautifully captures the essence of this site. Crushed flowers, mint, white pepper, sage and rose petal lend aromatic brilliance to a Barolo that impresses with its sculpted, chiseled personality. A whole range of floral and savory overtones reappears on the finish, adding brightness and lift." —Antonio Galloni, Vinous
"Rolling out of the glass like billowing clouds, the wine opens subtly with aromas of tart red fruits, herbs, leaf, and worn leather. Taut and well-structured with fine tannins, the throughline is sour cherries with hints of dried spices, crumbled leaves, and chalk. This very elegant wine is built for the long haul, with a drinking window spanning from 2026 to 2045." —Wine Enthusiast
