Medium garnet colored

(89-91)/2020+

and it's one of the more intense wines I tasted within this selection

with fine harmony and a lingering aftertaste of ripe fruit

The 2000 Barolo Riserva Le Rocche del Falletto is soft and quite open in feel

There is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the lightly stony and chalky textured flavors that terminate in a linear, saline and chiseled finish. This lovely effort is like rolling small stones around in the mouth and a wine that should age gracefully over the mid term.
