Tasting notes

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.

About this wine

Pio Cesare's Ornato represents the pinnacle of Barolo DOCG production from Piedmont, Italy's most prestigious wine region. Crafted from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the heart of the Langhe hills, this full-bodied red wine embodies the power and complexity for which Barolo is renowned. Pio Cesare brings generations of winemaking expertise to each vintage, combining traditional methods with meticulous vineyard management to produce wines of remarkable depth and character.

The Ornato is a warming, structured wine marked by dark black fruit, spicy undertones, and subtle smoky notes that develop complexity with time. At 14.5% ABV, it delivers the intensity and elegance expected from a top-tier Barolo DOCG. This is a wine built for the table, pair it with grilled meats, lamb, duck, game birds, or rich pasta dishes. It also complements blue cheese, aged Parmesan, and dishes enhanced by aromatic spices. An exceptional choice for fine dining, private cellars, and special occasions where sophistication matters.
