Barbaresco DOCG Falletto - Bruno Giacosa
Information
About the producer

Bruno Giacosa, who passed away in January 2018, was an iconic Italian winemaker, notably in the Barolo and Barbaresco appellations. His career began very early at the age of 13, when he helped his parents in the family wine business. He also learned very young about grape selection during harvesting. This allowed him to establish a reputation as an excellent négociant. Before acquiring his own domaine (Azienda Agricola Falletto), he vinified grapes from prestigious crus. On the domaine, red wines are macerated in thermoregulated stainless steel vats. White wines are aged in stainless steel and Barberas and Nebbiolos are aged in large oak barrels. Ageing lasts between 1 and 3 years and the wines are then stored in bottles for a while prior to sale.

About the wine

The wine has a garnet-red appearance with orangey hints. Truffle and liquorice notes add complexity to the aromatic bouquet, which is unusual in a Nebbiolo. The palate is slightly austere in its youth but, after a few years' keeping, reveals velvety tannins and great character.
