About Us
Rooted in Family. Inspired by Italy. Built on Trust.
Our Story
Founded in 2004 by Gesino Sgro, Bacco Wine & Spirit, LLC is a family-owned importer and distributor of fine Italian wines and spirits based in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
Built on a passion for Italian winemaking traditions and a commitment to quality, Bacco began by introducing distinctive Italian wines to the Pennsylvania market. Over the years, the company has expanded its reach, building a distribution network spanning more than 30 U.S. states.
Today, Bacco continues to connect the heritage of Italian producers with the opportunities of the American marketplace, combining personal relationships, industry experience, and a carefully curated portfolio.
Discovering Italy, From North to South
Italy’s extraordinary diversity of landscapes, climates, and traditions is reflected in every bottle we select.
From the renowned vineyards of Northeastern Italy, through the rolling hills of Tuscany and the distinctive wine regions of Central and Southern Italy, to the rich traditions of Calabria and the sun-drenched vineyards of Sicily, our portfolio celebrates the character and craftsmanship of Italy from north to south.
Working with more than 15 carefully selected producers, we seek wines and spirits that express their origins while offering exceptional quality, distinctive character, and compelling value for the U.S. market.
Every product tells a story of place, tradition, and the people behind it.
A Family Business Built on Relationships
More than two decades after its founding, Bacco remains firmly rooted in the values of a family business.
Founder Gesino Sgro continues to guide the company alongside his two sons, whose experience and dedication help carry the business forward. Supported by a team of professionals, the family combines personal attention with a long-term commitment to its producers and commercial partners.
We believe successful partnerships are built on trust, transparency, reliability, and shared goals. These principles have shaped our business from the beginning and continue to guide the relationships we develop today.
Quality at Every Step
Our commitment to quality extends beyond the selection of exceptional wines and spirits.
Bacco operates a spacious, temperature-controlled warehouse to support proper product storage and help preserve the quality and integrity of its portfolio.
We carefully evaluate the products we represent, seeking the right balance of authenticity, craftsmanship, consistency, and competitive positioning.
For us, quality is not simply a promise. It is the standard that guides our decisions and the relationships we build.
