Bruno Giacosa Barbera d'Alba Falletto 2014 (750ML)

91 WA / 91 JS / 90 WS

This wine was produced in 2012, but the Giacosa family decided to skip over the very difficult 2013 (especially difficult for Barbera) vintage. The 2014 Barbera d'Alba Falletto is made with estate fruit and shows the power and heft of Serralunga d'Alba. This is a more structured expression with good depth and a generous offering of dark fruit flavors. The finish is marked by a crisp spot of balanced acidity. Monica Larner - The Wine Advocate

This is spicy and fun with chili, berries and licorice. Medium body, bright acidity and a long and flavorful finish. Drink now. James Suckling

A bright, fruity style, offering cherry, blackberry, spice and loam notes, with an element of sweet fruit. The finish lingers with spice and licorice accents. - BS, Wine Spectator
