Barolo Riserva Le Rocche del Falletto RED DOCG Piedmont - red label

A Barolo that needs time and gives it back to you with depth: The Riserva from the single vineyard Le Rocche del Falletto is one of the most famous wines of Piedmont and shows Nebbiolo in its strict, precise form.

The grapes grow in Serralunga d'Alba, a municipality known for its powerful, long-lived Barolo. Calcareous and clayey soils give the wine structure and tension. Falletto di Bruno Giacosa continues the signature of the legendary winemaker, who stands for clear single-vineyard bottlings and loyalty to origin. At Giacosa, the red labels traditionally mark the Riserva bottlings.

Dense garnet red in the glass. On the nose, dark cherries, rose petals, and tar, plus fine spice as well as earthy and mineral notes. Powerful yet elegant on the palate, with clearly defined structure, firmly interwoven tannins, and a long finish.

Recommendation: Saddle of venison, braised veal cheek, mushroom risotto, or tajarin with white truffle. Serve it at 16 to 18 °C and decant it beforehand so that the bouquet can open up.
