Note di degustazione
The 2004 Barolo Riserva Le Rocche del Falletto di Serralunga rounds out this flight in grand style. What a wine! Rich, textured and expansive, the 2004 Riserva offers up a compelling mélange of dark fruit, tar, rose petals, gravel and licorice, with huge building tannins that wrap it all together. The Riserva is a majestic wine, but it needs at least a few years in bottle to be at its most glorious best.

The 2004 Barolo Riserva Le Rocche del Falletto is simply as profound as wine can be. Period. Strikingly layered, perfumed and sensual to the core, the 2004 has it all. Next to the straight Falletto, the Rocche is more refined but also quite a bit more backward as well. Mint, rose petal and melted road tar grace the exquisite finish. The level of intensity here is simply mind-blowing. At ten years of age, the 2004 Rocche is a youngster, but it is clearly a wine of divine inspiration. For readers who look at the numbers, the score is the only possible score.
I am enamored with the ripeness, spiciness and mushroom character in this wine. This is a big and powerful wine with incredibly chewy tannins and beefy fruit. Think of a house made of bricks. Wait until 2017 if you can keep your hands off of it.
