It has a perfumed bouquet of bilberry and mulberry fruit

Moderate wood sets off the ripe and fresh if restrained aromas of soft earth

and a hint of chocolate in the background

The 2001 is still fresh

Bruno Giacosa, Barolo Vigna Rocche Riserva (Red Label) other_regions It has a perfumed bouquetThe 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
