Pio Cesare Ornato Barolo Nebbiolo 2013

Ratings on Delectable

Bob McDonald Delectable Pro

Normal Barolo descriptors but in this case a little detuned. Notes of earth, red savoury fruits and a touch of orange peel. Persistent tannins need to be resolved. In hindsight this is my first of three bottles and may have been drunk a little too young but drinking Windows from the Pros are widely divergent here. Ornato is only produced in outstanding years. James Suckling liked it with a 98 point score. I must be missing something.

Pio Cesare has been producing wine for more than 100 years. Aromas of dark fruit, spice & leather notes. On the palate ripe black fruit flesh with blackberry preserves and spice notes. Nice tannic jolt with fruit and oak finish ending with good structure and oaky character. Very nice. Tasting Sample.

Early in its evolution. Mint in the nose. Dark fruit and firm tannins.

This wine reminds me why Barolo is truly jaw-dropping/smacking.
