One of only three producers making Barolo in Scarrone di Mandorlo in Castiglione Falletto . These hilltop, steep organic vineyards are closest to the village and named after the almond trees that thrive here. The riserva sees nearly four years of aging in botti and is extraordinarily long-lived in the cellar.

Vigna Gianmate is a tiny plot at the top of the Basarin vineyard, widely considered one of the top crus in Barbaresco. In the local dialect, "Basarin" translates roughly to "warm place" - much like Côte-Rôtie. This is a sun-kissed Barbaresco, and one of the few wines that Giacosa ages partially in new barrique.

This Barbaresco is a beautiful study in the terroir of Giacosa Fratelli's home village of Neive and a beautiful counterpoint to the single vineyard Basarin "Gianmate."

Vermentino possesses an incredible ability to transmit terroir and shows off the unique qualities of Rufina. A refuge for the Florentine nobility before the advent of air-conditioning (the grapes are grown just outside of the Medici Palazzo that housed the family in the scorching summers), Rufina's cool nights protect acidity and freshness. However, the warm, sun-kissed afternoons create ripe juicy fruit. It perfectly straddles the line between more coastal examples from places like Cinque Terre or Sardinia or richer versions from Bolgheri or Montalcino.
