Note di degustazione
Quite closed on the nose, with the oak element in the foreground. Then hugely rich and opulent in the mouth, with an utterly smooth texture that goes beyond the other 2007s here. The concentration of plummy red fruit is accentuated by the wine's energy. Explosively long finish saturates the entire mouth with rich tannins.

The 2007 Barolo Ornato is striking. It shows marvelous delineation in it aromatics, tremendous breadth on the palate and fabulous balance. As always, the Ornato is a plush Barolo, with tons of Serralunga character and muscle. Rose petals, crushed flowers and spices add complexity to the dark fruit, while the French oak is very well-integrated. This is one of the most polished wines I have ever tasted from Pio Cesare.

Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027.
Serralunga d'Alba. Dark ruby with beginning of orange. Quite a lot of oak and vanilla pod blended with very ripe fruit. Bags of sweet, ripe fruit on the palate and lots of vanilla and rustic tannin. Popular. (WS)
