“If I said his top Barbarescos and Barolos can rival a great vintage of Petrus for richness and complexity, few, I suspect, would believe it. However, his wines are on that level… if I were restricted to only one bottle of Italian wine, it would be one of the great Barbarescos or Barolos from Bruno Giacosa.”
- Robert Parker
Since 1961, Bruno Giacosa has been producing some of the most sought after wines out of Piedmont. His list of eminent wines is long and strong, and stronger yet is his commitment to quality. Should a vintage be deemed unfit after his scrupulous review, it will be sold as bulk and under no circumstances be sold under the Giacosa label. When a vintage is superb, the “Riserva” is released. Vintages to look out for in particular: 1996, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2004.
The Bruno Giacosa Barolo 2020 is a distinguished Nebbiolo sourced from Serralunga d’Alba, crafted using traditional methods that include long maceration and approximately 30 months in large casks. This vintage is characterized by its refined and approachable nature, showcasing aromas of rose, sour cherry, and orange peel, complemented by notes of tar and mint. The wine exhibits polished tannins and vibrant acidity, making it elegant yet structured. With a notable alcohol content of over 14%, it promises a classic Barolo experience. This wine reflects Giacosa's legacy of quality and tradition, suitable for enjoyment from 2025 to 2040.
