"I remember paying what at the time seemed like a small fortune for bottles of Giocosa's 1990 Barolo Riserva Falletto at Peck's Enoteca in Milan.What I would give now to buy more at the same tariff! The 1990 Barolo Riserva Faleetto is one of Bruno Giacosa's most towering wines.Period.Rich,layered and opulent,this mineral-driven,powerful Barolo covers every inch of the palate with masses of dark fruit,smoke,soy,plums,menthol,dried roses,pine and a host of other balsamic overtones.This vivid,kaleidoscopic Barolo is a reference-point wine readers won't want to miss.As always,the Riserva Falletto is virile and authoritative in tone.Simply put,it is profound". Drink 2013-2030.
