96 Points Tom Kline (The Wine Pilot) – “Certified organic Boca. The cepage is 80% Nebbiolo and 20% Vespolina. Fruit from 70-year-old vines rooted in volcanic soils and protected from cool winds by a natural amphitheatre. Raised in large neutral oak. A musky, dusty nuance to start, followed by black cherry, decaying red florals, sage, and fennel with a balsamic and ferrous complexity in support. This is excellent Boca. The palate is cohesive and driven with red florals, ferrous, balsamic, and a savoury kick. There’s some broodiness here, and great intensity, while the stacked Nebbiolo tannins and latent lick of acidity carry it very long through the palate. An excellent wine.”

94 Points, Mike Bennie - "Chewy and dark fruited with a sense of finesse. A lithe and energetic red of intensity and depth with fine, grainy tannin lending structure and succulence. Dark cherry, black plum, brined olives and fennel in scents and flavours with a dusting of light white pepper. Game meat? Maybe. A guttural eartiness and mushroomy umami thing? Yes. Succulent and long, a luxurious red of energy and deliciousness in spades. Feels fine and finessed. Superb drinking." Drink 2023-2035

Galloni Vinous - The 2018 Boca is an ethereal wine. Seet red cherry fruit, blood orange, sage, mint and dried flowers all grace this mid-weight expressive Boca. The 2018 is exotic, beguiling and full of character.
