Carlo Giacosa in Portugal | Cave Tirsense

Four generations in Barbaresco, family vineyards and the classical elegance of Nebbiolo.

The producer

A family house with a complete reading of Piedmont.

Carlo Giacosa combines a long family history with vineyards in some of Barbaresco’s most recognised crus.

The range begins with regional varieties and culminates in historic vineyard expressions, all marked by precision, elegance and restraint.

“Great crus are understood through time, family memory and repeated work in the same vineyards.”

The work

A project shaped by place, people and close attention.

Behind every bottle is a sequence of decisions made in the vineyard and the cellar. The scale remains close enough for each vintage and each lot to be followed directly, preserving the identity of the house.
