The 2005 Barolo Le Rocche del Falletto is a massive towering Barolo loaded with tons of rich primary fruit. The wine remains powerful dense and muscular with superb length even if it is a smaller-scaled Barolo compared to previous great vintages. That said when I came back to the wine after it had been in the glass for an hour or so I found that the wine had grown remarkably. While the 2005 doesn't have the explosive personality of the 2004 it remains an awesome achievement in this vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2035.
