The 2021 Barbaresco Rizzi is an attractive, delicate wine. Orange peel, cinnamon, kirsch, tea leaves and cedar give this mid-weight Barbaresco lovely aromatic presence to match its translucent feel. This is very nicely done. ANTONIO GALLONI
A medium ruby/pinkish hue, the 2021 Barbaresco Rizzi is floral and fruity, with notes of baked strawberries, fresh flowers, peach, and orange. Medium-bodied and bright, it’s well-balanced, with a savory touch of orange pith through the finish, offering a nice snap to the delicately ripe red fruit and clean finish. It’s a very appealing and charming entry to the range from Rizzi. Drink over the next 6-7 years. AUDREY FICK, JebDunnuck.com.au
Of these various new releases from Rizzi, I thought this wine had the most character and gumption. The 2021 Barbaresco Rizzi shows good depth of aromas with high tones of cherry, raspberry, cola and pressed violet. The Rizzi MGA sits at 230 to 300 meters above sea level with limestone clay and sandy soils. Production is 13,700 bottles. MONICA LARNER, The Wine Advocate
This offers notes of spiced cherries, dried raspberries and hints of of licorice and walnut on the nose. Medium-bodied, dry and chalky on the palate with firm tannins and a juicy core of fruit. Very attractive and flavorful. Better after 2026. JAMES SUCKLING
