Description and technical sheet
The Barolo Riserva DOCG Falletto Vigna Le Rocche 2016 by Bruno Giacosa is one of the most prestigious expressions of this renowned Piedmontese wine. Coming from an exceptional vintage, this Barolo represents the pinnacle of Nebbiolo winemaking. The Vigna Le Rocche, located in Serralunga d'Alba, is renowned for its particularly favorable soils, which impart a unique structure and complexity to the wines. Falletto Vigna Le Rocche is the result of a meticulous selection of grapes and careful winemaking, followed by extended aging in oak barrels that enhances its complexity and elegance.
Barolo Riserva DOCG Falletto Vigna Le Rocche 2016: Tasting Notes
The Barolo Riserva DOCG Falletto Vigna Le Rocche 2016 exhibits a deep, almost impenetrable garnet red color. On the nose, it reveals a complex and captivating bouquet, dominated by aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherries and plums, accompanied by hints of tobacco, leather, and noble spices. A subtle note of earth and minerals adds further depth to the aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is structured and powerful, with robust yet elegant tannins that provide a sensation of fullness and finesse. The finish is long and persistent, with a sweetness of dried fruits and a hint of bitter chocolate. This Barolo Riserva, with its great complexity and balance, is ideal for pairing with red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses. Its robust structure and aging potential promise extraordinary longevity.
