Note di degustazione
The 2021 Barbaresco Pio is gorgeous. A burst of sweet red berry fruit, rose petal, cinnamon, blood orange and pomegranate makes a strong opening statement. Medium in body and gracious, with striking purity, the straight Barbaresco is an absolute delight. Silky tannins wrap it all together in style. This is an especially fine vintage for the Pio bottling.

The Pio Cesare 2021 Barbaresco presents a solid core of dark fruit, cherry and redcurrant, with spice and dried rose petal elegantly layered in at the back. This wine paints an accurate picture of a classic vintage with nicely ripened fruit and firm tannins. It sees 30 months in oak, mostly in large oak casks and some neutral barrique.
A bright red color, the 2021 Barbaresco Pio is focused, spicy, and pure on the palate. Coming mostly from Treiso, it offers notes of wild raspberries, clove spice, dried orange peel, and dried earth. Medium-bodied, it exhibits good linear tension and structured tannins, with a deeper structure derived from the Treiso soils, which are more akin to those of Barolo and will require time to soften. Drink 2025-2040.
