Wine Advocate: 96 Points
The 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota stands out in this group of nine for the slightly more mineral-driven definition on the bouquet and the bigger textural impact and structure of the mouthfeel. There is plenty of wild fruit and cherry but the wine's aromas also veer toward crushed stone iron ore spice and candied orange peel. You feel the impact on the palate thanks to integrated tannins freshness and an elegant dose of fruit or phenolic weight. Fruit for this wine is sourced from vineyards owned by the Bellora Lignana and Viglino families. Production for Muncagota in this vintage is 11157 bottles.
Wine Spectator: 95 Points
Balsamic notes of juniper eucalyptus and pine align with floral cherry and black currant flavors in this supple well-structured red. Balanced and long with a lingering aftertaste of rose cherry and mineral. Best from 2024 through 2043. ?B.S.
Vinous: 94+ Points
The 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota continues this tasting of frankly awe-inspiring wines. Rich deep and super-expressive the 2016 hits all the right notes. Black cherry plum spice leather licorice emerge but only with great reluctance. The Muncagota is another wine in this range that clearly needs time.
