PRE-ARRIVAL 2020 Vietti Barbaresco Riserva Rabajà Barbaresco 750Ml Bottle

96 Points - Jeb Dunnuck
The estate bought this land in 2019, and the 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Rabaja comes from their second harvest. It has a medium red hue and is highly expressive with aromas of salted orange, crushed roses, oak spice, ripe peach, and cranberries. The palate offers fantastic energy, with an approachable feel as well, and it has refined tannins and a long finish. This will be one to stash away. 1800 bottles per year are produced.

95 Points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Rabajà is magnificent. A wine of crystalline precision and nuance, the 2020 bristles with energy. Slate, crushed rocks, orange peel, mint, cinnamon and dried flowers all race across the palate. This intensely saline, taut Barbaresco needs a number of years in bottle to be at its best, even if it is pretty alluring right now
