Barbaresco Starderi from the municipality of Neive is almost austere with its scent of pink pepper and cocoa, which, combined with the subtle woody notes, creates a delicious overall aroma; the flavour is powerful and rich with the still superficial but very noble tannin. SUPERIORE.DE

"Beguiling raspberry and violet flavours, soft cherry notes; precise wine with a lot of polish and tightly woven tannins, perfectly balanced acidity, combining character and elegance." Vinum

"A mix of savory and fruity, this red embraces rose hip, cherry, raspberry, juniper, eucalyptus and iron flavors in its silky texture. Well-structured, too, yet overall expresses finesse, with a terrific, persistent aftertaste. Shows impressive harmony and complexity." Wine Spectator

"The Bio La Spinetta 2021 Barbaresco Starderi Vürsù is a very nice wine that I prefer to the Gallina and the Valeriano. It is characterised by its medium-bodied density and spicy concentration with layers of dark fruit and blackberry jam. The quality of the fruit is very dense and rich, and the wine offers sharp definition. With time, it develops a dark, smoky side with caraway and barbecue spices." Wine Advocate

"Aromas of strawberry, peach and fresh pink rose. Also some hibiscus. Full-bodied and very complex with lovely tannins that are soft and creamy in texture, yet compact and concentrated. Best after 2028, but already drinking so beautifully now." James Suckling

"The 2021 Barbaresco Vigneto Starderi is one of the finest wines I have tasted from La Spinetta. Vibrant and balanced, with striking beauty, the 2021 is wonderfully lively in the glass. Crushed rose petals, spices, mint, orange peel and cinnamon rise from the glass. Lively acids." Vinous
