Medium ruby-colored, the 2015 Barbaresco Crichet Paje offers another level of purity in its ripe fruit notes of candied roses, pure raspberries, wet stones, and peaches. This continues to the palate with fantastic length and balance, a seamless structure, and a long, haunting finish with lovely intensity and finesse. Outstanding and fresh, it can be enjoyed over the next 30 years. Bravo.

The 2015 Barbaresco Crichet Paje a wine of extreme elegance and seduction. Bright red-tined fruit, rose petal, tobacco, incense and spice lend striking inner perfumed. A wine of soaring aromatic presence and exceptional balance, the 2015 is so impressive, especially in the way it balances exoticism with classicism. Here, too, the balance is quite simply mind-blowing. - By Antonio Galloni on September 2023

An opulent style, this complex red offers notes of cherry, plum, rose, fresh herbs, licorice, tar and mineral, with layers of flavor and texture unfolding as this builds to a long and nuanced aftertaste, where a stony mineral component lingers. So fresh, it's hard to believe this is closing in on a decade already. Best from 2025 through 2045. 140 cases made.
