Bruno Giacosa, one of the world's legendary winemakers, has been making Barolo and Barbaresco wines from the most prestigious individual vineyards for nearly eight decades. He joined the family business at the age of 15, representing the third generation of the winemaking family. Giacosa's pursuit of perfection, the unique taste of his wines and his intimate knowledge of the vineyards of the Langhe quickly gained recognition and contributed to his becoming the leading wine region of Piedmont. In 1980, Giacosa began acquiring the best parcels of Serralunga d'Alba, La Morra and Barbaresco to produce wines that are rightly considered the finest expressions of Nebbiolo. His legacy lives on, his daughter has preserved her father's winemaking philosophy, respecting traditional techniques while taking advantage of modern technology. The aim remains to make special, distinctive wines from each prestigious area.
Today, the Valmaggiore vineyard is one of the hottest wine-growing areas in Piedmont. The fruit from here has been exceptional for the past few years. The 2015 Nebbiolo d'Alba Vigne Valmaggiore shows a youthful vigor with the freshness of cherry and raspberry, with primary fruit aromas followed by red rose and pressed violet, with some iron and tobacco in the background. Tight, full wine with ripe tannins.
