Bruno Giacosa Dolcetto d'Alba Falletto 2010

Straightforward red cherry and soft tannins lack the mineral backbone expected from this celebrated cru. The wine drinks pleasantly enough but feels generic, missing Falletto's signature calcareous tension and distinctive character. A disappointing effort that doesn't justify the vineyard's reputation.

Bruno Giacosa

Bruno Giacosa is among the most celebrated names in Piedmont, producing benchmark Barbaresco and Barolo from top single vineyards including Asili, Rabajà, and Falletto. The wines are age-worthy, classically structured, and deeply site-specific.
