2017 Bruno Giacosa AA Falletto Barbera d'Alba, Piedmont

One of the legendary winemakers of the world, Bruno Giacosa joined the family business at the age of 15, representing the third generation of his Langhe winemaking family. Giacosa’s unfailing pursuit of perfection, his unrivaled palate and his intimate knowledge of vineyards in the Langhe quickly drew recognition and helped establish Piedmont as a leading wine region. His legacy rests with daughter Bruna, who continues to uphold her father’s winemaking philosophy to respect traditional techniques while using the best of modern technology. The goal is for each distinguished site to produce articulate, unique wines.

Intense aromas and flavors of cherry, layered with hints of licorice, graphite, and plum preserves. Balanced and full-bodied on the palate with nicely integrated acidity.
