Tasting Notes

Wild berries, white pepper, licorice, and aromatic herbs lift from the glass with lovely precision. The palate is velvety and elegant, showing savory depth, fine tannins, and a long, persistent finish.

Food Paring

Pair this Barbaresco with braised beef, mushroom risotto, or game dishes when you want structure and finesse on the table. It also shines with truffle-accented pasta and aged cheeses for a classic Piedmont-inspired pairing.

Professional Reviews

94 James Suckling

"Walnuts, cherry stones, strawberries and tobacco on the nose. It’s full-bodied and well framed, with fine, lightly chalky tannins. Lots of finesse and length. Drink after 2025."

93 Robert Parker Wine Advocate

"This wine sources its fruit exclusively from a five-hectare site with local Tortoniano soils that are rich in magnesium and manganese with a bluish hue. The Prunotto 2021 Barbaresco Bric Turot (with 26,000 bottles made) shows an expressive savory side that to my tastes translates as more roots than flowers. Dark fruit is followed by tilled earth, petrichor and toasted almond husk. This is a keeper, but for near and medium-term drinking, I would go with the village Barbaresco."

93 Vinous

"The 2021 Barbaresco Bric Turot offers all the classicism of Treiso in its deeply-pitched, spiced personality and structural feel. Dark red-toned fruit, cloves, leather, orange peel and saddle leather give the 2021 lovely exotic elements that add to its beguiling personality. Clean mineral notes extend the finish."
