Pio Cesare Barolo Ornato 2019
With fruit from the village of Serralunga d'Alba, the Pio Cesare 2017 Barolo Ornato exhibits a richer textural style and more concentrated fruit flavors compared to all the other Nebbiolo-based wines in this portfolio. Dark cassis and blackberry segue to black licorice and tarry smoke. Those signature hints of rusty nail, earth and candied orange peel that are so specific to this village are also quite evident. The wine shows structure and depth that will help it withstand extra cellar aging. (Monica Larner)

Colour

Precious ruby dress with garnet reflections.

Bouquet

Rich and varied olfactory range. Empyreumatic hints blend with the crunchy red fruit. Followed by dog rose, gentian, moss, ferns, star anise. Hints of blonde orange peel.
