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.

Produttore
Azienda Agricola Falletto di Bruno Giacosa
Negli ultimi 40 anni, il meticoloso Bruno Giacosa ha prodotto molti dei migliori Barolo e Barbaresco del mercato. La sua conoscenza, passione e curiosità hanno creato la fama di questa spettacolare azienda vinicola. La sua ricerca costante delle uve migliori, dai vigneti più prestigiosi, ha letteralmente pagato. Oltre alle uve acquistate e vinificate, etichettate Casa Vinicola Bruno Giacosa, ha seguito la nuova ondata di produttori-coltivatori e ha acquisito terreni propri: Asili a Barbaresco e Falletto a Serralunga, e questi vini sono imbottigliati con l'etichetta Azienda Agricola. La tenuta è rinomata per i cru di Barbaresco Asili, Rabajà, Santo Stefano, e il cru di Barolo Vigna Rionda. I vini Falletto e Villero mostrano agevolmente le complessità armoniose del Nebbiolo. Alla fine, grazie agli sforzi congiunti di Giacosa e ai metodi tradizionali del vignaiolo Dante Scaglione, i vini Barbera, Dolcetto e Roero Arneis soddisfano sia i critici che gli amanti del vino.
