The 2010 Pio Cesare Barolo Ornato is a single-vineyard Barolo from a celebrated vintage. This wine is sourced entirely from the Ornato cru, located in the Serralunga d’Alba commune. The vineyard is known for its south-facing exposure and its soil composition of Helvetian sandstone and limestone, which imparts a powerful structure and a high level of concentration to the Nebbiolo grapes. This vintage continues to offer considerable ageing potential.

The 2010 Barolo Ornato is quite possibly the best wine I have ever tasted from Pio Cesare's hillside site in Serralunga. Exotic, beguiling and constantly changing in the glass, the 2010 Ornato races across the palate with compelling nuance, brightness and energy. Red stone fruits, crushed rocks, orange peel, spices and white pepper all blossom from the glass in an exotic Barolo full of allure. The 2010 captures all of the mystique of what Serralunga is all about. This is a fabulous showing from Pio Boffa and the team at Pio Cesare.Antonio Galloni1st September 2014
