Pio Cesare Barbaresco Tinto

Description

This Pio Cesare Barbaresco takes a rather bold approach, favouring generous amplitude and fresh fruit over the typical Nebbiolo’s patient maturation. The tank fermentation, with its vigorous temperature and extended maceration, clearly aims for a wine with a substantial body and immediate impact, perfectly aligning with the potential of the Castas. While the oak ageing incorporates nuances from both American and French barrels, it provides a smooth integration, yet stubbornly retains that Douro character – a fantastic match for grilled red meats or sautéed mushrooms, wouldn’t you say?
