"Oprindelig fremstillet af druer fra Fratelli Seghesios besiddelser på La Villa, Frazione Castelletto i Monforte d’Alba, siden fra Mauro Veglio og Daniela Saffirios besiddelser på denne cru. Nu anvendes udelukkende druer fra La Morra. En klassisk blanding af Barbera og Nebbiolo, tilføjet Altares magiske håndelag. En meget komplet vin med udsøgt renhed og balance. Den aromatiske profil er præget af roser og stor frugtkompleksitet med en bund af jord, fennikelfrø og trøfler. Nebbiolo-andelen yder dertil bløde og smidige tanniner og giver en skøn tekstur og balance til den på en gang både stofrige, men også meget elegante vin." Adriat
"The 2020 Langhe Rosso La Villa is a blend of 60% Barbera (from the Larigi Vineyard) and 40% Nebbiolo (from Arborina). Production is limited to just 1,200 bottles. Like the Giàrborina, this wine exudes a sense of generosity and accessibility that comes with warm-vintage fruit. That impression is amplified in this case, given the presence of Barbera, a grape that loves hot growing conditions and is naturally rich and fruity per se. This wine shows volume and intensity, making it a happy partner to a cheese-rich oven-baked pasta dish like lasagna. There is enough acidic freshness to cut through the fat in that dish." - Wine Advocate 94p
"The 2020 La Villa (60% Barbera, 40% Nebbiolo) is a deep, powerful wine that seems to show a bit more Barbera character in its depth and overall textural intensity. Black cherry, plum, cloves and rose petal. There's a ton of energy here, but it is all directed inwards, making the wine feel very closed and quite reticent." - Antonio Galloni 94p
