It’s buttressed by a beautiful balance of ripe fruit characterized by strawberry and orange-peel undertones. Chewy and focused. Needs four or five years to soften and show its true greatness. Available in February 2019. Try in 2022.12/17/2018

Lots of ripe red and black berry fruits, crushed violets, licorice, and spicy notes give way to a medium to full-bodied Barbaresco with plenty of angular yet ripe tannins, good acidity, abundant mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It shows the ripe, warmer style of the vintage yet still needs 4-6 years of cellaring.

Combined with Pio Cesare's use of stainless steel for vinification and then botti and barrique for maturation, the result is an elegant, fresh yet structured wine with hidden power. The broad palate has a chocolate edge to it, with oak astringency and plummy hedgerow fruit in tow. The fine, delicate tannins give grip but there's a lovely juicy character just waiting to break out. If you need to drink this right away it deserves decanting. Approximately 5,000 bottles produced.

I paired this wine with lightly aged salami that worked beautifully, thanks to the oily nature of the food and the fresh nature of the wine. Some 7,000 bottles were made.- ML
