Introduction
Pio Cesare Langhe Nebbiolo 2022 is a red wine from the Langhe region of Piedmont, Italy. Founded in 1881 by Cesare Pio, the winery is one of the oldest in Alba and is currently managed by the fifth generation of the family. The winemaking philosophy emphasizes the 'family style' by blending fruit from diverse family owned vineyards in Barolo and Barbaresco to create a wine that captures the comprehensive character of the region rather than a single site.
Wine Description
This wine exhibits a vibrant ruby red colour with garnet reflections. The sensory profile is elegant and complex, featuring aromas of red cherries, wild strawberries, and rose petals, accented by spicy notes of white pepper and a touch of tobacco. On the palate, it is medium bodied with a refined structure, offering flavours of ripe red fruit, forest floor, and a distinct mineral streak. The wine is characterized by silky yet firm tannins and a fresh acidity that leads to a long, savoury finish. Composed of 100% Nebbiolo, it typically has an ABV of 14% to 14.5% and is aged for approximately 24 months in large French oak vats with a small portion in barriques. While the winery follows sustainable practices, this label is not certified organic.
Food Pairing
The elegant tannins and bright acidity of this Nebbiolo make it an excellent companion for a wide range of savory dishes. It pairs harmoniously with roasted veal, braised beef, or game meats like duck and pheasant. Its earthy undertones also complement truffle based pasta, mushroom risotto, and aged Italian cheeses such as Fontina or Castelmagno.
