Note di degustazione
The 2019 Barolo Ornato is a big, tightly wound Serralunga Barolo that is going to need time to come into its own. Iron, white pepper, mint, dried herbs and orange peel open, but with great reticence. Today, the Ornato is impenetrable. Let's see what happens over time.

The Pio Cesare 2019 Barolo Ornato sources its fruit from one of the best-known MGA sites in Serralunga d'Alba. The character of this wine always prizes structure and power, and these qualities are especially evident in a vintage like 2019 that offers more concentrated fruit to begin with. Ornato is infused with dark berry nuances contrasted against savory tones of spice, tar and smoke. It closes with finely textured tannins. Production is 13,029 bottles, 600 magnums and other large formats.
Serralunga d’Alba. Mid ruby. Leafy, balsamic cherry fruit on the nose with a hint of morocco leather. Supple, round fruit on the palate, with a hint of gingerbread and compact, long tannins. Solid. (WS)
Introspective but expressive, the 2019 Barolo Ornato takes on more spice and savor with its notes of black licorice and cedar and is bolder in and broader in its expression. It has a more solar and warming feel, with medium to full body, ample structure, and fantastic length. This more serious and broad-shouldered wine will benefit from time in the cellars and move into more leather and red plum tones in the future. Drink 2025-2045.
