Pio Cesare Barbaresco 2010

Bright red cherries, plums, spices, orange peel, tobacco and leather are some of the many notes that meld together in the 2010 Barbaresco. Lifted and aromatic on the palate, the 2010 impresses for its balance and total sense of class. Firm tannins support the classic-feeling finish. All of the classic Nebbiolo signatures are on display. Pio Cesare’s Barbaresco is made from three sites in Treiso. Drinking window: 2015-2030. Score – 94. (Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, Aug. 2014)
