Cool, late-ripening and classic in style, 2008 was long underrated next to warmer years, but is now recognised as a vintage of great finesse. Bruno Giacosa's Barolo Falletto Riserva 2008 is eloquent proof: slender, aromatic Nebbiolo with rose, cherry, orange, dried herbs and minerality, carried by lively acidity and still energetic tannins. Wine Spectator awarded it 97 points and Jancis Robinson 18/20. The vintage's tension gives the wine a slow evolution: it shows great elegance today but still has reserves of freshness to face many more years in bottle with ease.
The producer · Bruno Giacosa
Few names embody the Langhe tradition like Bruno Giacosa. Born in Neive in 1929 into a family of wine merchants, Bruno learned to read vineyards as a boy and for decades bought grapes from the finest crus of Barolo and Barbaresco, earning a legendary reputation as a selector. Estate vineyards came later: Falletto in Serralunga d'Alba, acquired in 1982, with its most prized parcel, Le Rocche, and a holding in the celebrated Asili cru of Barbaresco. The style is resolutely classic: long macerations, ageing in large oak casks, and austere, long-lived Nebbiolo that needs time to unfold. In the greatest years the house releases its famous red label, the Riserva, among the most sought-after wines in Italy. Since the founder's death in 2018 his daughter Bruna has led the estate with the same rigorous loyalty to place, preserving the identity of a house that shaped modern Barolo and Barbaresco without ever chasing fashion.
