Barolos Made by Bruno Giacosa

 


N = Non-Reserve (white label), R = Reserve ("Red" label), X = None Made,
* = something distinctive or qualified about that wine (click on link for more info)
(Before 1980, the red label was officially called "Riserva Speciale".)
Please see the notes at the bottom of the page which include some additional wines and labels.
I have high confidence in the entries in bold font, less for the non-bold.
Clickable entries are linked to a photo of a label for that wine.

If you have a photo of wine that I do not, or you have a better photo than the one here,
and you would like to contribute your photo, please email it to me (kenvastola "at" gmail).

Note the change in the naming convention for the Le Rocche subplot above.
This is due to a change in the terminology for vineyards. Falletto is an MGA.
Le Rocche is an official Vriv, that is, an officially recognized vineyard within an MGA (where the MGA is Falletto).
Thus the name must be written as Falletto Vigna Le Rocche rather than Le Rocche del Falletto.
See the notes at the bottom of the page for maps and more details.

Note that Le Rocche above (a subplot of Falletto in Serralunga) is a different plot from Le Rocche below (which is in Castiglione Falletto).
Also note that no Rionda or Villero is produced after this point. See the notes at the bottom of the page for more details.

Notes

Barolo Vineyards

Bruno Giacosa made all his wines from purchased grapes until 1982 when he purchased the Falletto vineyard. The tables above include only the wines he made in many vintages. Below we give information about all the vineyards where he made at least one Barolo, beginning with the ones he made the most from. Below that, we discus vineyards he made wine from in only a few vintages.
