"This 2024 Pecorino Colline Pescaresi offers a delightful balance of crisp freshness and rich complexity. The nose is vibrant, with notes of ripe green apple, citrus zest, and a hint of almond blossom. On the palate, it’s lively and refreshing, with bright acidity that’s perfectly paired with a smooth, almost creamy texture."

94 Wine Enthusiast

A lighter hue in the glass, this bottling is layered on the herbally exciting nose in peppercorn, bay leaf, red currant and cranberry aromas. The palate is hearty in mouthfeel and packed with cohesive flavors of eucalyptus leaf, baked berry, dried meat and more spicy peppercorn.

This is a fragrant, fresh and medium-bodied pinot noir that has aromas and flavors of wild raspberries, oranges and nutmeg. Lightly chalky tannins that don’t detract from the fruit. Drink now.

93 Sam Kim - Wine Orbit

This is instantly appealing on the nose with raspberry, grapefruit, red apple and subtle spice aromas. The palate is equally charming with lovely weight and juicy fruit intensity, finishing vibrant and mouth-watering.

Ruby black color. Aromas and flavors of baked cherries, mocha, and blackberries and black currant with a round, lively, bone-dry medium-full body and a warming, interesting, medium-long finish conveying shades of red and black cherries and currants, black plum and blackberry, mocha, and toasted vanilla bean with fine, well-integrated tannins and moderate oak flavor. A very good wine with the potential for excellence with cellaring and decanting but showing all of the right stuff in this youthful stage.

91 Wine Spectator

"A handsome red, refined and focused, with appealing black currant, pencil lead and bay leaf flavors that gather tension toward medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2030. 1,728 cases made. - TF"

The 2022 Château Barde-Haut checks in as the usual blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc that was brought up 50 to 60% new barrels, with the balance in once- and twice-used barrels, with a small amount in tank. Gorgeous black raspberries, blue fruits, smoky tobacco, violets, and crushed stone all define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a silky, elegant mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a great, great finish. It’s not far off the style of the 2020 (and 2010), and is a rocking little Saint-Emilion to enjoy over the coming 20+ years.

96 Antonio Galloni - Vinous

The 2022 Barde-Haut is stellar. A rich, heady wine, the 2022 offers up copious blue/purplish fruit, licorice, lavender, chocolate and incense. Layered and beautifully resonant in the glass, Barde-Haut exudes class and personality.

94-96 Lisa Perrotti-Brown - The Wine Independent

The 2022 Barde Haut, 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, is deep garnet-purple in color. It rocks up with ready-to-go notes of plum preserves, baked blackberries, and Indian spices followed by suggestions of tilled soil, Ceylon tea, and black olives. The full-bodied palate is jam packed with tightly wound black fruits and earthy accents, supported by firm, ripe, rounded tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing long and minerally. pH 3.39

96 Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider

Oceanic salts, truffles, smoke, flowers, licorice, and dark, red pit fruits show in the nose with a single swirl. The palate, with its layers of elegant, silky-textured fruits expresses a beautiful sense of purity to the fruits from the mid-palate, through to the finish. The lingering endnotes serve up ample freshness, length, and a refreshing, minty charm that entices you to take another sniff and sip, to experience it all over again. This is the best vintage of Barde Haut ever produced! Bravo!!! The wine blends 80% Merlot with 20% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2027-2050.

94-95 James Suckling - Jamessuckling.com

A velvety red with lovely creamy tannins, juicy fruit with black berries, spice, ink and boysenberry. Medium to full body with a solid structured and depth. Velvety texture. Hints of sea salt.

92 Vinous Media - Vinous

Brilliant magenta. Mineral- and spice-accented aromas of ripe cherry and red berries are complemented by a smoky top note and a hint of candied flowers. Pliant and spicy on the palate, offering nicely concentrated bitter cherry and black raspberry flavors that deepen slowly on the back half. Finishes gently sweet and quite long, with a hint of succulent herbs and smooth tannins lending shape and closing grip.

93 Monica Larner - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"A blend of Colorino and Sangiovese with tiny parts of the white grapes Trebbiano and Malvasia, this is a powerful and balanced expression. For authenticity and personality, the 2015 Bibbianaccio pokes some fun at the 100% Sangiovese wines of the appellation by introducing the other indigenous grapes found in this cheerful blend. It presents wild cherry and rose with tilled earth and powdered licorice and would be a pleasant pairing with grilled meat and vegetables."

91 Wine Spectator

"Fading cherry and strawberry flavors are flanked by woodsy, wild herb and pine notes. There's a sweet core of fruit, along with oak spice. Tips slightly toward the tannins, but this is hitting its peak now. Complex and old-school. Sangiovese, Colorino, Malvasia Bianca and Trebbiano. Drink now through 2028. 180 cases made, 28 cases imported."
