An alluring red, this invites you in with aromas and flavors of rose hip, cherry, currant, earth, mineral, tobacco and sweet spices. Firm and beautifully balanced, with finesse and tension between the delicate flavors and energetic tannins, showing excellent intensity and length. Best from 2027 through 2048. 1,080 cases made, 510 cases imported.-Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator

Rich, brilliant ruby-garnet colour. Complex nose with notes of cranberry, sour cherry and strawberry, some leather in the background. Spreads continuously and richly on the palate, lots of hearty, polished tannins at the core, firm drive and a long finish.- Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler, Falstaff

The 2020 Bric del Fiasc offers heady aromas of violet, forest berry, new leather, graphite and spice. Boasting a weightless concentration, the elegantly structured palate delivers ripe black cherry, crushed raspberry, orange zest, baking spice and licorice. Velvety tannins provide support. Drink 2028–2035. Abv: 14.5%-Kerin O’Keefe

Intense nose with orange rind, savory salted plums, cloves and minerals here with a touch of mussel shell and white pepper. Juicy and powerful with a full body and tightly wound tannins that resolve smoothly into a rich but fine finish. Long and concentrated flavors here. Drinkable now, but better to try from 2027.-James Suckling

The 2020 Barolo Bric Del Fiasc is jeweled red in color and has a great nose of cherry liqueur, violets, lavender, a touch of blueberry, sweet herbs, sweet earth, and balsamic, but it’s pure and fresh. Medium to full-bodied, it has a plush, velvety texture and lovely richness without feeling heavy, and it offers sweet tannins, notes of tea leaf, and a rounder feel, with a long finish. Drink 2026-2046.-Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck

Intriguing notes of blueberries and violets dance on the nose, intertwined with captivating floral aromas of lavender and rose petals, creating a charming and pretty bouquet. The palate follows suit, revealing a harmonious blend of delicate blackberry and plum flavors, complemented by a touch of sage and thyme. Subtle hints of forest floor, dried leaves, and damp earth add depth and complexity to this Barolo. Drink 2026 - 2045 — Jeff Porter, Wine Enthusiast

The 2020 Barolo Bric del Fiasc is a powerful, tannic wine. Then again, it is Bric del Fiasc. Iron, dried herbs, white pepper, geranium, orange peel and red-toned fruit are all delineated, framed by sinewy, nervous tannins that give the wine its shape. This driving, taut Barolo will need at least a few years to hit its stride. It’s a bit compacted today-Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

Castiglione Falletto. Lustrous mid ruby. Expressive, concentrated strawberry and raspberry nose with dark-earth hints. Lots of acidity and fragrant fruit on the palate. Ends a little racy and slightly lean, but with a long, fragrant finish.-Walter Speller, JancisRobinson
