About The Wine
The story of Azienda Bruna Grimaldi is one of family passion and tradition, set among the beautiful hills that connect Grinzane Cavour and Serralunga in Barolo. Since 1957, when Giacomo Grimaldi first began selling grapes, the family has dedicated itself to the craft of winemaking. Giacomo’s brother Giovanni soon joined, selling wine by the liter, and by the 1990s, Giovanni’s daughter Bruna and her husband Franco transformed the business into a modern winery, releasing their first bottled wine in 1999. Today, their children, Simone and Martina, continue this legacy with energy and pride.
The Grimaldi family’s vineyards include the celebrated Badarina in Serralunga and old vines in Grinzane Cavour. They’ve also acquired prized plots in areas like Bricco Ambrogio in Roddi. Some vines are over 25 years old, and the estate sits near the renowned Francia Vineyard, home to Monfortino—a legendary Barolo that sells for over $1,300.
With a commitment to sustainability, Grimaldi uses no herbicides or harsh chemicals, allowing the vines to thrive naturally.
Aging: 24-30 months in Slavonian oak big barrels.
