This is the second 100-point Vigna Le Rocche, following the 2015. What the former had in intensity of fruit and transparency, this has in structure and power. The purity of fruit is sensational in this young Barolo, offering blackberries, black truffle and iron. Rust too. This is so tannic and powerful with incredible structure. This may be the most structured Barolo from Bruno Giacosa I have ever tasted as a young wine. Speechless. Full-bodied and so intense, yet it remains fresh and agile. Traditional in every sense of the word, but this is clear and clean. A classic in the making. It will be in the market January 2022. Leave this for at least six to eight years. Try in 2027.

The Bruno Giacosa 2016 Barolo Falletto Vigna Le Rocche sees its fruit sourced from the oldest vines in the Falletto cru. This wine boasts all the signature touches of Serralunga d'Alba with the massive structure, density and the long aging potential that comes with Nebbiolo grown in this village. The wine spreads evenly over the palate, imparting its considerable fruit weight and generally leaving a big impact. This Barolo is really quite lovely and beautiful. The bouquet is fluid and ever-shifting, showing new sides with firm fruit, blackberry, smoke, rusty nail and mineral with every swirl of the glass. I visited this vineyard site shortly before tasting this wine and marveled at the beautiful peacocks that roam free between the rows of vines.

This red bursts with juicy cherry, blackberry, floral and mineral aromas and flavors fused to a firm structure, with dense tannins gaining the upper hand on the finish for now. Nevertheless, there is a beam of pure cherry throughout and this finishes long, with fruit and wild herbs gracing the aftertaste. Best from 2026 through 2048. 110 cases made.

Azienda Agricola Falletto di Bruno Giacosa
Ces quarante dernières années, le méticuleux Bruno Giacosa a été à l’origine de Barolo et Barbaresco parmi les meilleurs du marché. Ses connaissances, sa passion et sa curiosité ont façonné la réputation de cette cave remarquable. Sa quête permanente des meilleurs raisins, issus des plus grands vignobles, a porté ses fruits, au sens propre comme au sens figuré. Hormis les vins qu’il élabore à partir de raisins achetés auprès de viticulteurs, qui sont commercialisés sous le nom de Casa Vinicola Bruno Giacosa, il s’est inspiré de la nouvelle vague de producteurs-récoltants en achetant des vignobles. Dénommés Asili à Barbaresco et Falletto à Serralunga, ces vins de domaine font figurer la mention Azienda Agricola sur l’étiquette. La réputation du domaine est fondée sur ses crus de Barbaresco - Asili, Rabajà et Santo Stefano - et ses crus de Barolo, baptisés Vigna Rionda. Ses Falletto et Villero exhibent la complexité harmonieuse du nebbiolo avec une aisance absolue. Au final, les efforts de Giacosa et les méthodes traditionnelles de l’œnologue Dante Scaglione se sont conjugués pour séduire tant les critiques que les amateurs avec leurs barbera, dolcetto et autres roero arneis.
