Barolo, Falletto di Serralunga--Vintage 1997
Piedmont. Bruno Giacosa
In 3-magnum original wooden cases
Tasting Note: Giacosa's 1997 Barolo Falletto de Serralunga is an exquisite Barolo offering superb notes of tar, earth, truffles, liquorice, minerals, and cherry/raspberry fruit. There is plenty of acidity as well as high tannin, but concentrated, chewy flavours. The wine is tight, dense, impressive, and surprisingly structured for a 1997. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2025. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 135, June 2001.
