Acclivi is a liquid postcard from Verduno, the fruit of its historic vineyards, of their steep slopes, dusted with pale earth. The locale transmits stretches of calm, a natural gracefulness, the airy splendor; it distills all this into a Barolo that is as pure as a crystal, infused with a current of luminous energy.

96 Points - Wine Enthusiast, September 2022. "Rose, new leather, tilled earth and red forest berry aromas emerge from the glass on this fragrant, lovely red. Elegantly structured, the focused, savory palate features cinnamon, star anise and crushed mint that accent a core of juicy red cherry and crushed strawberry. Taut, refined tannins and bright acidity provide great balance and tension. It's already drinking beautifully and will evolve for years. Drink 2023–2033."

95 Points - Falstaff, October 2022. "Clear medium density ruby, pale rim. Clear, appealing nose, fine raspberry, plus rhubarb and pomegranate. Surprisingly firm tannin on the palate, firm and gripping, then shows lots of juicy fruit, opens up great in the course, salty and with a very long finish."
