The 2017 Barbaresco Ronchi is darker, richer and more potent than the straight bottling, but ultimately the two wines aren't as different as they have been or should be. I imagine at least some of that is attributable to the vintage. Black cherry, smoke, tobacco, licorice and leather all meld together nicely. The heat of the vintage is a bit more evident here, but is also nicely balanced. The 2017 finishes with notable substance and power. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, February 2022)

Pomegranate and fresh cherry. Savory, sappy and juicy. Love this. NBI

Solid. Medium+ bodied. A nice mineralality to it. But not super dry.

Took a while to open up but then pretty solid — gentle but with structure. Not as amazing as others are saying.
