Overview

Pio Cesare Barbaresco Pio DOCG is a classic expression of Barbaresco, produced from Nebbiolo grown across several family-owned vineyard sites. It reflects Pio Cesare's traditional approach: blending different terroirs within the appellation to create a complete, balanced and long-lived wine.

The 2021 vintage is elegant, structured and deeply age-worthy, with ripe fruit, spice, fine tannin and the savoury complexity expected from traditional Barbaresco. Pio Cesare is clear that this is not a basic or regular Barbaresco; it is the historic family style, made to represent the harmony of the appellation as a whole.

Vineyards

The fruit comes from Pio Cesare family-owned vineyards in Treiso, including Il Bricco, San Stefanetto and Bongiovanni, along with Rocche di Massalupo in San Rocco Seno d'Elvio, Alba. This multi-site approach follows the classic method used by historic Barbaresco families to combine the unique characters of different villages, exposures and soils.

Winemaking

Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with 25 to 30 days of skin contact. The wine is aged in large French oak botti for around 30 months, with a small portion matured in barriques, followed by bottle ageing before release.

Critic Reviews

96 Points - Raffaele Vecchione, WinesCritic.com
Tasted November 2024
A luminous and captivating Barbaresco with notes of red plum, woodland strawberry, peach, elderflower, jasmine, mandarin peel, wild thyme, marjoram, laurel and green olive. Fine-grained tannins and a solid, decisive finish. Best from 2026.
