Wine Spectator: 95 Points
Broad yet supple and laced with plum, black cherry and blackberry flavors, this red is focused by bracing acidity. Licorice, earth and iron accents add depth as this tightens up. Offers fine-grained tannins on the persistent finish, which shows mineral notes. Best from 2028 through 2045

The 2020 Muncagota Riserva opens with an intense balsamic fragrance recalling camphor and eucalyptus that accent forest floor, hay and woodland berry. On the fresh, rather firm palate, taut, fine-grained tannins accompany ripe cherry, star anise white pepper and crushed mint. Drink 2026–2032. Abv: 14.5%"
Vinous: 94 Points
The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota comes across as somewhat austere today, which is pretty atypical. Floral, mint and white pepper lend notable aromatic brilliance. Deceptively medium in body, the 2020 offers plenty of drive. Floral, savory and mineral notes extend the intense, saline finish. I am curious to taste this again with more time in bottle. (Drink between 2025-2035)
Wine Advocate: 94 Points
The Produttori del Barbaresco 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota is quite powerful and ample but not fully integrated as of yet. This vineyard site is located in a warm growing area, and you do feel the heat of the vintage in terms of the ripeness of the bouquet and the softness of the tannins. This wine paints with broad brush strokes, offering blackberry, plum and spice. It needs another year or two to find better focus.
