This consignor enjoyed wine in a casual, social setting, but a remarkable experience with a particular bottle at a restaurant sparked a deeper interest. Over the past decade, he has been actively collecting, focusing on quality and provenance. Much of his collection has been carefully sourced from reputable specialty wine stores across Alberta, with a select few bottles acquired during travels abroad or through trusted auction houses.

2007 Falletto di Bruno Giacosa Le Rocche del Falletto Riserva Barolo DOCG (Scuffed Label) from this lot has the following scores - James Suckling 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2007 Falletto di Bruno Giacosa Le Rocche del Falletto Riserva Barolo DOCG (Scuffed Label) from Robert Parker - with a score of 100. The 2007 Barolo Riserva Le Rocche del Falletto bursts onto the palate with masses of dark fruit. The Riserva is a decidedly dark, brooding wine in this vintage. Scorched earth, smoke, menthol, licorice and new leather flow with marvelous intensity all the way through to the powerful finish. Over time the classic Giacosa bouquet of dried rose petal emerges, rounding out this fabulous effort in grand style. The imposing tannins will require a measure of patience, but the 2007 Riserva is shaping up to be another magnificent, towering Barolo from Bruno Giacosa. .
