It is produced in small quantitat once, precisely to preserve the high quality that makes it one of the most sought-after bottles in the world. It is a Barolo that offers the classic profile of the Serralunga d'Alba terroir, famous for centuries for its complexity, power, structure and longevity. It is a precious bottle, to be enjoyed on a special evening with friends. Barolo Ornato wine was born in one of the most famous wineries of the Langhe. The Pio Cesare winery was founded at the end of the 19th century and still represents the traditional face of great Barolo. The estate covers about 70 hectares, with parcels cultivated in some of the most prized crus of the territory. The grapes used to make this prestigious label come exclusively from the Cascina Ornato vineyards, located in the Serralunga d'Alba area, in one of the most famous areas of the denomination for the extraordinary quality and longevity of its wines. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, with a period of maceration on the skins lasting about a month, which may vary depending on the vintage. The wine is then elevated in Slavonian oak casks and a small part in barriques for 30 months, completing its refinement in the bottle.
