Pio Cesare Piodilei Chardonnay Langhe DOC 2023 14% 750ml
TASTING NOTES
AROMA
Spicy and citrus aromas.
PALATE
Spicy, creamy and intense with a soft but long aftertaste. Sweet fruit, hot and ripe, still very fresh with an elegant touch of oak. Long life. Produced in very small quantity.
REGION NOTES
Sourced from our Family-owned vineyards “Il Bricco” in Treiso, located in the Barbaresco area, and “Colombaro” in Serralunga d’Alba, located in the Barolo area, which will be replaced from the 2019 vintage with the “Mosconi” vineyard in Monforte d’Alba. Since the 1985 vintage, it represents our desire to produce a white wine with the same body, complexity and ageing potential of the great reds historically produced in the area.
WINEMAKERS COMMENTS
The name Piodilei (translating “Pio for her”) is a tribute to the Ladies of our Family, to their strong character and resolution, typical traits of the Langhe terroir, handed down genetically generation after generation.
VINIFICATION
Alcoholic fermentation starts in stainless steel tanks then end in French oak barriques, with very limited use of new oak and delicate toasting, where Piodilei rests for nearly 10 months. Long bottle ageing before release.
MATURATION
In French oak barriques for almost 8 months with extensive lees contact.
