Producer

Producer

The Pio Cesare vineyard extends across carefully selected plots in the Barbaresco region. The soil, primarily composed of limestone and clay, imparts a unique minerality to the grapes. The continental climate, with hot, dry summers and cold winters, allows the grapes to ripen slowly, developing complex aromas. The estate's commitment to environmentally friendly viticultural practices fosters biodiversity, enriching both the terroir and the quality of the wines.

Owner and history

Today, the estate is run by the Cesare family, who perpetuate the tradition and legacy of Pio Cesare. The current owners, passionate about their craft, continue the pursuit of excellence by ensuring the quality of the grapes and the integrity of the winemaking process. Their vision is to produce wines that tell the story of their land, while adhering to a sustainable and environmentally responsible approach. Thanks to their expertise and commitment, Pio Cesare remains a leading name in the world of wine.

Vinification and aging

The winemaking process for Pio Cesare - Barbaresco 2017 begins with a rigorous selection of hand-harvested grapes. The Nebbiolo grapes are destemmed and gently crushed before being fermented in stainless steel tanks, where alcoholic fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures. A long aging period of 24 months in oak barrels allows the tannins to soften and the woody aromas to integrate, while preserving the varietal character. This traditional method ensures complexity and depth in the wine, while respecting the authenticity of the terroir.
