Written Notes

The 2001 vintage in Piedmont has long been a favorite of mine. Bruno Giacosa’s 2001 Barolo Riserva Le Rocche del Falletto is explosive and decadently rich from the very first taste. The 2001 is arguably the last truly classic vintage for the Rocche Red Label. To be sure, the 2004, 2005 and 2007 are all compelling, but the 2001 has more in common stylistically with vintages like 1996 and 1999. Dense, perfumed and wonderfully intense, the 2001 is phenomenally great. Wow.

Good looking normal size bottle. Colour is brick red, and looking evolved and medium. On the nose it is intense, wide, refined and pure. The taste is firm, refined, with drying tannins, and average in acidity, full-bodied, with concentrated structure and developing. On the palate it is layered and has cherry, earthy, dried-fruit, meaty, mineral and smoky flavours. The finish is long, spicy and pure. This wine is wine for food. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years.
