Paitin Barbaresco Serraboella 2022 - 750ml

94pts Wine Advocate

The Paitin 2022 Barbaresco Serraboella reveals pretty complexity with tart cherry flavors, cassis, rose tea and pressed violets. There is a hint of mineral or pencil shaving, and these balanced flavors tie in nicely into the wine's silky tannins and taut structure. This pretty wine offers great tension and energy.

The 2022 Barbaresco Serraboella is another success for Paitin in this vintage. A wine of reserved power, the 2022 needs a few years to come together, but it has considerable potential. Dark red fruit, iron, new leather, incense and blood orange infuse the 2022 with tons of character. Give the bruising tannins a few years to soften. This understated Barbaresco packs quite the punch. An iron fist in a velvet glove.

92pts Wine Spectator

A beam of cherry courses through this otherwise austere red, along with savory notes of wild herbs, earth and iron. Supple in texture, this is backed by a base of dense, dusty tannins, with a flash of the cherry fruit echoing on the finish

91pts Decanter

From this renowned Barbaresco cru, Paitin's expression is full of woodland notes and floral cherry and strawberry aromas, plus a touch of mint. Ripe and juicy in the mouth, the fruit is surrounded by a wash of acidity and some oyster shell salinity. Refined and vertical, with fine, structural tannins and good concentration.

91pts James Suckling

A layered wine with licorice, embers, red currants, fresh violets and a whiff of camphor. Medium-bodied on the crunchy palate, offering crisp acidity, chalky tannins and a tight yet polished finish.
