Pio Cesare

Pio Cesare is a renowned wine producer based in the Piedmont region of Italy. The company was founded in 1881 by Cesare Pio, and has been family-owned and operated ever since. It is now run by the fifth generation of the Pio family, who continue to uphold the tradition of producing high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Piedmont region.

Located in the heart of the Langhe wine region, Pio Cesare has access to some of the most prestigious vineyards in Piedmont, including the famous Barolo and Barbaresco appellations. The winery also has vineyards in other areas such as the Roero and Monferrato regions, which allows them to produce a diverse range of wines.

Pio Cesare is best known for their Barolo, which is considered one of the greatest wines of Italy. Made from the Nebbiolo grape, this wine is crafted with meticulous attention to detail and aged for at least three years in oak barrels before being released. The result is a complex and elegant wine with intense aromas of dark fruits, spices, and earthy notes.

In addition to their Barolo, Pio Cesare also produces a range of other red wines, including Barbaresco, Barbera d'Alba, and Dolcetto d'Alba. These wines showcase the unique characteristics of the different grape varieties and terroirs of the Piedmont region. Pio Cesare also produces a small amount of white wine, including a Gavi di Gavi and a Chardonnay from the Langhe region.

The winemaking philosophy at Pio Cesare is based on a combination of tradition and innovation. While they respect the long-standing winemaking traditions of the region, they also embrace modern techniques and technology to ensure the highest quality wines. This approach has earned them numerous accolades and awards, including being named "Winery of the Year" by Wine Enthusi
