This Pio Cesare Barolo DOCG is a showstopper that doesn't need a decade to prove itself. Crafted entirely from Nebbiolo grapes, it bursts with vibrant fruit notes and captivating aromatics while boasting the serious backbone Barolo is famous for. Rich color, silky tannins, and perfectly balanced acidity make it surprisingly approachable now—yet it's got all the hallmarks of a vintage worth cellaring. A wine that's both elegant and ready to party.
This is very powerful and structured, with aromas of black truffles, graphite and hints of dried thyme and cedar. Medium- to full-bodied and chewy yet polished. Hints of terra cotta and dark fruit. The finish goes on and on.
The Pio Cesare 2021 Barolo draws fruit from various sites, and like the Barbaresco, you get an excellent portrait of the vintage with balanced acidity, firm tannins and bright primary fruit. There is energy and vitality in this pretty Barolo with dried cherry, iris and subtle dustings of iron ore or rust.
