critic reviews

90/100Antonio Galloni,Vinous

The 2019 Barolo Falletto is a straightforward, tasty wine to drink now and over the next decade or so. Its quality level is equivalent to a straight Barolo from any good to outstanding producer, but with the tannic structure that suggests the ambition to be more than that. The 2019 offers modest mid-palate weight and overall complexity. Hints of cedar, tobacco, leather, licorice and spice struggle to emerge from a wall of overpowering tannin. Aeration softens the rough edges but does not add measurable expressiveness. This is neither bad nor great. The tannins lack the customary Giacosa polish.
