The bouquet is packed with floral notes (such as acacia flowers and wisteria) and stonefruit, such as peach, typical of the vine. On the palate we find the same fruity and floral notes, a good sapidity characterizes the final profile, giving the wine length and persistence.

"A fine and pretty Barolo with plenty of strawberry and mushroom character. White truffle, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied and creamy with medium, round tannins. Delicious now and will improve nicely." 94, James Suckling

This deliciously rich and luxurious red exhibits the true character of the Nebbiolo grape. Concentrated aromas of red cherry, sweet spice and aromatic rose petal. The palate is intense and punchy with notes of tobacco, dark fruit and a subtle earthy note. The finish is super smooth with velvety tannins.

"The 2022 Barbaresco Asili is gorgeous. Silky, aromatic and light on its feet, the 2022 is classic Asili all the way. Its translucent finesse and energy are remarkable. Today, the 2022 is a bit stern in terms of its tannins. While I don’t see the seductive fruit and inner perfume of Giacosa's best Asilis, the 2022 is still one of...

"Rose petals with beautifully intertwined notes of chocolate and Indian spices. Among the best expressions of Asili with hard to articulate focus and elegance. Young but already showing plenty of class. Magnificent." Armit Wines

The elegant Barolo Falletto has a fine, elegant aroma with notes of fresh red fruit and spice. On the palate it presesnts a good structure and freshness with well balanced tannins.

"A beautiful expression from the great Falletto vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba, a Giacosa family Monopole and with ideal South West exposure. Red cherry, blood orange and rose petal unfurl from the glass. With time this offers further nuances of leather and truffle. Distinctly grippy and mineral, this is hallmark Giacosa." Armit Wines

"2022 being a warmer growing season is giving slightly darker notes on the nose, red and blue berries. Fleshy and rich. This Nebbiolo glides over the mouth with warmth and generosity, finishes with a burst of bright red fruits and pleasantly." Armit Wines

"A classic Giacosa Falletto showing real authority: concentrated and tight showing great purity. Fresh and lifted with bright aromatics. The herbal character enlivens the sip, finishing with a touch of mint and chocolate. Tannins are perfectly integrated. Great." Armit Wines

"With the white label, the 2019 Barolo Falletto Vigna Le Rocche is a generous and expansive wine that hits the palate from all sides. It offers lingering sensations of sweet fruit with a good amount of intensity and muscle power pushing from behind. That forward momentum is fueled by dark fruit, rusty earth, wet clay and blood orange. It shows...

"The 2020 Barbaresco Asili Riserva is a sensual beauty. Dark and expansive on the palate, with gorgeous resonance, the 2020 is seriously impressive. Wild cherry, lavender, cedar, new leather and spice build effortlessly in the glass as the 2020 works its way through the mid-palate and into its beautifully reverberating finish. The 2020 is quite simply one of the very...

"Red berries and rose petals, textbook Nebbiolo elevated to perfection. Piano wire tension carrying the wine from start to finish, the tannins are plentiful and rich without being astringent acting as the backbone holding the fruit expression tight but allowing individual expression as the wine sits on the mid palate. Needs time but already so compelling! Stunning Giacosa brilliance." Armit...
