Ripe red fruit, subtle leather and sandalwood tones. Earthy.

Popped and poured, no formal notes. This bottle of 2007 Giacosa Barolo Falletto Serralunga d’Alba was served alongside a number of absolute bangers and was probably my wine of the night. I would describe it as vinous now and it has so much personality. Unmistakably Serralunga: gorgeously perfumed, beautifully dark fruited and fabulously structured. This is the third 2007 I’ve had from multiple producers in the last 18 months and I gotta say, I think the 2007 Barolo vintage is in a really great spot right now. Definitely a vintage I’ve slept on. For this particular bottle, drink now though I expect it will live through 2037.

I get it. Traditional, but deep, compact fruit like you’re walking in a forest of raspberries that restores your soul and replenishes your heart.
