The 2018 Pavie was picked from 1 to 10 October

It has a perfumed bouquet of bilberry and mulberry fruit

Moderate wood sets off the ripe and fresh if restrained aromas of soft earth

which is very fragrant and ethereal

Bruno Giacosa, Barolo Vigna Rocche Riserva (Red Label) other_regions The 2018 Pavie was pickedThe 2000 Barolo Riserva Le Rocche del Falletto is soft and quite open in feel. It also shows a slightly roasted quality it has always had that is a hallmark of this warm vintage. Sweet red cherry, smoke, leather and tobacco add shades of nuance throughout. Although not likely to be a long term ager by Giacosa standards, the 2000 is quite enjoyable tonight. Antonio Galloni
