Pecchenino San Giuseppe Barolo 2018

93 Wine Spectator
This silky Barolo is marked by macerated cherry, strawberry, rose hip and a hint of tamarind. The tannins are interwoven so well, this is almost seamless. Very drinkable now, yet the compact finish suggests waiting a few years. Fine length. Best from 2025 through 2040.

Smoky incense lifts from the 2018 Barolo San Giuseppe, followed by notes of palo santo, sage, and red cherry. Medium bodied on the palate, with fine but present tannins and notes of pomegranate, tea leaf, and orange rind, it is attractive and structured for the vintage. Drink 2025-2040.

93 James Suckling
Lots of forest floor and mild spice to the dried-cherry notes on the nose. Medium-to full-bodied with a tight, focused core of dried red fruit and an underlay of very fine tannins. Tight finish. Tasty and racy. The tannins pull on the finish for now. Give it until 2024 to unwind a little.

92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2018 Barolo San Giuseppe is bright and nicely aromatic with dried raspberry, candied cherry, violet and powdery earth. This medium-bodied Barolo ends with smoothness and finely integrated tannins that give an extra push in terms of mouthfeel and finish.
