Bruno Giacosa's Barolo Riserva Falletto "Vigna le Rocche" 2016 is a masterpiece, produced only in exceptional years from the Vigna Le Rocche parcel in the Falletto cru, with the company's oldest vines. This intense garnet red with orange highlights offers an extraordinary bouquet of blackberry, candied cherry, black truffle, rust and noble spices. Aged for 36 months in large French oak barrels and further in bottle for at least 24 months, it presents itself with a titanic structure, imposing yet refined tannins and a purity of fruit that leaves you speechless. A legendary Barolo Riserva, a symbol of Giacosa's greatness, destined to defy time for decades.
