About this wine

Le Rocche di Falletto sits at the heart of Serralunga d’Alba and produces some of the most coveted Barolo in the region. In 2019, Giacosa delivers a wine of stunning intensity and balance: soaring aromas of roses, red cherry and blood orange lead into layers of raspberry, spice, liquorice and crushed stone. The palate is powerful but impeccably sculpted, with dense fruit wrapped around finely chiselled tannins and vibrant acidity. This is a Barolo that combines the muscularity of Serralunga with an almost Burgundian sense of precision and fragrance.

Tasting Note

Wine Advocate underlines the wine’s depth of red and black cherry, florals and spice, framed by tightly knit tannins and a very long, savoury finish. James Suckling describes an extremely perfumed and complex Barolo with great power and structure, yet remarkable finesse and length.

In the glass

Deep garnet with a youthful, vibrant core.

In the nose

Rose petals, red cherry, blood orange, liquorice, sweet spice and crushed rock.

On the palate

Full-bodied and vertical, with concentrated red fruit, dense but ultra-fine tannins and a very long, saline, spicy finish.

Bruno Giacosa

One of Piemonte’s greats. Bruno Giacosa is known for precision, elegance, and an almost obsessive eye for detail. His Barolo and Barbaresco show finesse over power and remain benchmarks for purity and balance.
