Readers can check out notes on those wines in my recent feature on the estate posted on www

which is very fragrant and ethereal

and a hint of chocolate in the background

There is outstanding concentration and muscle to the punchy medium weight plus flavors that conclude in a beautifully long and notably firm finish of focused power and seriously good depth

It has a perfumed bouquet of bilberry and mulberry fruit

Bruno Giacosa, Barolo Vigna Rocche Riserva (Red Label) other_regions Readers can check out notesThe 2000 Barolo Riserva Le Rocche del Falletto is soft and quite open in feel. It also shows a slightly roasted quality it has always had that is a hallmark of this warm vintage. Sweet red cherry, smoke, leather and tobacco add shades of nuance throughout. Although not likely to be a long term ager by Giacosa standards, the 2000 is quite enjoyable tonight. Antonio Galloni
