## Summary

Falletto was Bruno Giacosa's first vineyard purchase, acquired in 1982 in Serralunga d'Alba, and remains the estate's benchmark Barolo.

## Tasting notes

Red cherry, blood orange and rose petal, developing leather and truffle notes with age. Grippy, mineral and structured, with the traditionalist backbone typical of Giacosa's Nebbiolo.
