Winery Bruno Giacosa

Family-rooted firm; Bruno Giacosa bottled wines from the 1960s, originally working as a commerciante buying selected grapes. He later acquired premier cru vineyards (including Falletto in Serralunga and parcels in Asili and Rabajà). Bruno Giacosa died on 21 January 2018; stewardship continued with his daughters.

An 'updated-traditional' approach: strict focus on grape quality, long macerations, use of large casks and a move to French oak for ageing. Very selective policy—wines are declassified or not bottled if they do not meet standards.

Langhe (Piedmont). Based in Neive; estate holdings and historic parcels include Falletto (Serralunga d'Alba) and Barbaresco crus such as Asili and Rabajà, with presence across key MGA of Barolo and Barbaresco.

Recognitions and honors: among the publicly reported honors, Bruno Giacosa was awarded an honorary degree by the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Bra.
