American distance runner Steve Prefontaine once said, “To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.” The quote might as well have come from Bruno Giacosa. A consummate perfectionist, Giacosa honed his winemaking skill starting at the age of 15. Each vintage was an exercise in painstaking craftsmanship and technical consistency. Any fruit that did not live up to Giacosa’s lofty standards was sold off in bulk.
 
This rigorous approach makes wines like 2013 Bruno Giacosa Barolo Falletto Vigna Le Rocche extraordinarily rare and almost guarantees an ethereal experience. On the nose, it is elegant and refined with hints of red fruits, balsam, wildflowers, licorice, and truffles. The palate unwinds with nuanced fruitiness and a firm tannic frame that should put on weight with age. If there is an issue, it’s that there are a mere 1,150 cases in circulation.
 
The Final Sip: For wine investors, anything with the name “Bruno Giacosa” demands consideration, and 2013 Bruno Giacosa Barolo Falletto Vigna Le Rocche is no exception.
