"Transparent ruby red colour. Vines over 80 years old provide the material for this exceptional Barbaresco with a cathedral-like appearance on the nose: the ethereal-balsamic superstructure with notes of sandalwood and incense, juniper and rosemary is complemented by fruity litanies of cherries, raspberry jam and blood oranges and adorned with floral overtones of violets, mallow and hollyhocks along with a pinch of white pepper. On the palate, the wine is precisely pared, elegantly understated and charming. The fine, long, taut acidity gives it an aristocratic polish, while the ripe, tightly woven tannins envelop it in the finest thread. Delicate and transparent, the delicate fruit illuminates the entire palate." Sebastian Bordthäuser (Sommelier und Wein-Journalist)

"Sparkling, brightening ruby-garnet colour. Wonderful nose with rich notes of wild raspberry, plum and rose petals, plus some beeswax. Lots of substantial tannin on the palate, opens up in many layers, spans a wide arc, firm pressure on the final." Falstaff

"The Barbaresco Pajè Vecchie Viti 2018 is characterised by a striking inner sweetness. The Vecchie Viti is powerful and deep, but not in an obvious way. It has more inner sweetness and also more structure than the pure Pajè, but also less obvious depth, as strange as that may sound. Above all, I admire its freshness. It will be interesting to see how it develops in the bottle." Vinous

"This pure red wine shows flavours of cherry, raspberry, rose and liquorice, underlined by mineral and tobacco elements. Taut and straightforward, with the essence of fruit, floral and mineral notes, it shows great harmony and length in an elegant frame." Wine Spectator
