Giacosas Barolo Le Rocche is vinified only in the best vintages as Riserva (red label) and has an almost magical attraction to Nebbiolo lovers all over the world.
The 2012 vintage, which has just been released, is once again a 360°-beauty with impressive intensity and complexity. This wine never appears heavy or flat, but with its indescribable elegance it once again creates the benchmark in Piedmontese viticulture. His energy carries him into spheres that are unparalleled. A cornucopia of rose petals, exotic spices, truffles and undergrowth leaves a unique fingerprint even before the almost endless finish, as only Giacosa's Riserva can do. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2012 Barolo Riserva Falletto Vigna Le Rocche (red label) was bottled last September and has already eased into a comfortable and promising stage in its very early evolution. Fruit selection was extreme in 2012. This is a warm vintage expression, and the wine is beautifully rich and velvety as a result. That textural richness is what stands out most. The primary fruit is bold and very well defined. There is a point of dark cherry ripeness, but it adds to the generous fiber and softness of the mouthfeel. Of the many beautiful vintages I have tasted of this wine, I suspect the 2012 might be faster in its evolution." Wine Advocate
"A rich and decadent Barolo with dark berry, meat and hints of chocolate and spice. Full body, layered and dense with some leather and walnut underlying the ripe fruit." James Suckling
"Piercing scents of truffle, rose water, macerated cherry and medicinal herbs are the hallmarks of this elegant red. Less evolved and harmonious on the palate, with a core of sweet fruit and tightly wound, dense tannins. Stays fresh and long on the extended finish." Wine Spectator
