Estimate
The incredible terroir at Rocche del Falletto, capable of producing wines that are powerful yet harmonic at the same time, was judged worthy of our Three glass award.
...nose of spices, menthol, minerals, smoke and scorched earth followed by waves of sweet fruit that coat the palate in a potent mix of finesse and sheer power, with fine tannins, and a lingering balsamic note on the finish.
This is a beautiful, seductive wine with power yet great finesse. It's full-bodied, with a massive silky mouthfeel and lovely raspberry and strawberry character. It's very, very long. All in harmony. Giacosa is a master.
...Knockout nose shows great precision to the clean aromas of raspberry, wild strawberry, minerals and rose petal; ...quite Burgundian.... ...great intensity and floral perfume... ...Downright Musigny-like, with superb energy...
