Braida Di Giacomo Bologna
A brief history
Founded in the 1960s by Giacomo Bologna—who inherited the family vineyard and the nickname “Braida”—the estate has played a pioneering role in redefining Piedmontese wines, especially Barbera. Today, Braida is led by siblings Giuseppe and Raffaella Bologna, both winemakers, with the fourth generation now joining the legacy.
The estate's iconic Moscato d’Asti, Vigna Senza Nome, is grown on the hillside of Mango in the Langhe, a vineyard acquired in 1990. Its label features the Latin palindrome “Sator Arepo Tenet Opera Rotas”, meaning “The farmer directs the work of the plough”—a motto that embodies Braida’s vision of purposeful, passionate winemaking.
The letter G on the label stands for the generational heritage: Giuseppe → Giacomo → Giuseppe → Giacomo Jr. (from 2025), symbolizing the continuity of knowledge and care passed down through time.
