This historic family-owned estate is named after its founder Cesare Pio, who established the business in 1881. It is based in Alba in the heart of the Piemonte region, nestled between the Alps and the Mediterranean Sea. The surrounding hills provide a handful of ideal exposures for grape growing with unique micro-climates. The confluence of cold Alpine air with warm maritime moisture regularly creates a misty glow, or ‘nebbia’, over these foothills, hence Nebbiolo, the great red variety of the region. Pio Cesare's Barbaresco is a glossy garnet colour with light ruby shades. The nose is intense and fragrant, with a hint of violets, cinnamon and vanilla. The palate is dry, but full and vigorous, with overtones of peach. This wine has a quiet power.
