Giacosa – Wines Meant for the Cellar |
September 6, 2009 |
| |
“As I look forward to celebrating the 25th anniversary of The Wine Advocate in 2003, I can think of no Italian producer whose wines have given me as much pleasure as the Barbarescos and Barolos from Bruno Giacosa. He is one of a handful of producers whose wines I will purchase without tasting them first. After buying them, I have learned to forget them for at least a decade. These are the wines of an uncompromising traditionalist who will not make one concession to modern day tastes that require immediate gratification. Although these wines frequently taste unimpressive young, with serious age, they become extraordinary legends for the greatness of the Nebbiolo grape….These are among the most profound wines produced anywhere in the world. However, they should only be purchased by connoisseurs with both the cellar conditions and the patience to wait them out.” |
- Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate |

Tips on placing a successful bid:
- Research current retail and auction price data at www.wineprices.com to determine a fair and realistic bid price.
- Consider that the seller is charged a 15% to 20% commission, as well as shipping (if the wine is not in Vinfolio storage).
- Note the location from which you’d like your wine to be sourced. Wine in Vinfolio storage can usually be fulfilled more quickly upon bid acceptance.
- Make sure the quantity you are bidding on is actually available in the Marketplace.
- Remember, sellers are not obligated to sell their wine, but placing a fair and realistic bid will improve your chances of success.
