Critics Scores

WINE SPECTATOR
95

Wine Spectator

A powerful, muscular style, exhibiting concentrated cherry, plum and berry flavors, accented by herbs and tobacco, all framed by vivid acidity and beefy tannins. A bit brooding now, this should develop nicely over the next decade. Best from 2021 through 2045.

WINE ENTHUSIAST

Wine Enthusiast

Truffle, new leather, wild berry, cooking spice and balsamic aromas lead the way on this full-bodied enticing red. On the smooth delicious palate, velvety tannins frame dried black cherry, raspberry compote, licorice and grilled herb. Best 2020–2028.

ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2012 Barolo Riserva Ravera Vigna Elena is a dark and savory wine that has already passed into the magical realm of its tertiary evolution. The bouquet is extremely fine and equally complex with dried berry, toasted spice, tar, forest floor and freshly shaved truffle. That truffle note gives the wine a lot of territorial identity and immense charm. The tannins have integrated and show a very fine and polished nature.
