Pio Cesare Ornato Barolo 2020

Tasting Notes

This is very focused with lots of ripe tannins in the center palate. Very velvety and fine-textured with a pointed character. Medium to full body. Aromas of plums and spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg to the fruit. Bitter citrus. Chewy at the end. Taut muscles. Sophisticated. Needs four or five years to come around. Best after 2030 [and will hold until 2040]. (jamessuckling.com,Feb. 1, 2024)
