Origin | Italy, Piedmont, Barbaresco |
A very classical style Barbaresco: elegance and velvety, with ripe and spicy fruit. Strong tannins, but elegant. Good structure and concentration. Very long life.
Barbaresco is a great wine it should not be described as a "basic" or "regular" Barbaresco, simply because it does not have any additional indication on the label.
Wine Advocate

Pio Cesare excels when it comes to the classics, and this wine is one of those. The 2018 Barbaresco (released one year later compared to its peers) delivers some mild candied raspberry ripeness with lilac, tarry smoke, cedarwood and spice. The mouthfeel is silky smooth with softly integrated tannins.
Wine Spectator

A rich, earthy style, this red evokes cherry, raspberry, iron and tobacco flavors. Broad tannins announce the finish, yet this remains balanced and lingers. Best from 2025 through 2040. 2,500 cases made, 600 cases imported.
