Tasting Notes

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 17 Dec 25
The 2004 Barolo Falletto di Serralunga d’Alba soars from the moment it is served. Sensual and beautifully layered in the glass, the 2004 offers up a heady mélange of dark-toned fruit, leather, cedar, tobacco and spice box. At nearly 20 years of age, the 2004 remains magnificent. When all is said and done, 2004 ranks among Bruno Giacosa’s greatest vintages for the quality and number of epic wines he made.

Barolo Vineyard Fine Wine

Barolo

Barolo, the "King of Wines," is a prestigious red from Piedmont, Italy, made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes. Known for deep complexity, Barolo offers rich flavours of dark cherries, roses, truffles, and spices, with high acidity and firm tannins. It ages exceptionally well, evolving in depth and nuance. Barolo's diverse terroirs create a range of styles, from powerful to delicate. Top producers include Gaja, Bruno Giacosa, Giuseppe Rinaldi, and Marchesi di Barolo, all of whom exemplify Barolo's tradition and quality.
