"Aromas of menthol black spice leather rose hip and citrus lead the nose on the stunning 2020 Baudana from Luigi Baudana. It's smooth and delicious delivering wild raspberry strawberry compote blood orange tobacco and star anise alongside a backbone of polished tannins. Crushed mint lingers on the close while fresh acidity keeps it beautifully balanced." - Kerin O'Keefe

 

"Raspberry, spice, a little earthy and reductive, cinnamon and rose. It’s red fruited, succulent and fragrant, plenty of  red fruit flavour with a mint tea perfume, fine silty powdery tannin, some peach tea even, and quite unusual for Baudana in that it’s supple and easy-going, with a cool mint and raspberry finish of very good length." - Wine Front

 

"With fruit from Serralunga d'Alba the Luigi Baudana 2020 Barolo Baudana is a bold and ripe expression with dark currant black cherry sweet orange peel and crushed red rose. Soft earthy layers appear on the mid-palate with hints of spicy licorice. All of that intensity with soil fruit and spice swells over the palate giving this wine an impactful character. It is almost ready to drink straight out of the gate." - Wine Advocate

 

"The Barolo DOCG Baudana bears the name of the family; it is a prestigious Cru, rather uniquely, the soil here is a mix of both Formazioni di Lequio and Sant’Agata fossil marls that show a peculiar bluish tone.

 

A noble garnet hue also anticipates aromas of red fruits, candied flowers and cedar lying on hints of leather and spices. Warm, soft and dry, it has full-bodied tannins, but balanced by a fresh and gentle acidity." - Winery
