The 2000 vintage offers plush, mature fruit framed by Giacosa’s hallmark precision. Aromas of dried cherry, rose petal, tar, and spice rise from the glass, while the palate is broad and layered with notes of red berries, tobacco, balsamic herbs, and truffle. The finish is long and stately, with polished tannins and seamless integration. The Asili vineyard brings refined minerality and aromatic lift, hallmarks of its Grand Cru-level pedigree.
Producer Information
Bruno Giacosa is a famous wine producer based in Piedmont, Italy. It is particularly known for its intensely perfumed, textured wines from the Barolo and Barbaresco appellations, made from the Nebbiolo grape variety. Giacosa himself famously began in the wine trade buying grapes for his father's wines at the age of 15. By 1960, he was ready to begin his own business and soon became one of Barbaresco's principal producers, along with Gaja and the Produttori del Barbaresco cooperative. In 1964, Giacosa was the first producer in Piemonte to bottle a single vineyard "cru" from the Santo Stefano vineyard. Giacosa's standards remained high throughout the 2000s: the 2006 and 2010 wines were sold off in bulk as they were not seen as being up to standard, even though most producers did not regard these as poor years. Accordingly, Bruno Giacosa wines are among the most expensive of their kind. Many of Bruno Giacosa's wines come from trusted growers, rather than estate vineyards. However, in the early 1980s, the house purchased the Falletto vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba and a winery was built in Neive.
