This 2019 Barolo Mosconi by Pio Cesare, crafted from 100% Nebbiolo, is a powerful and age-worthy wine. On the nose, expect intense aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and dried rose petals, intertwined with earthy notes of tar, licorice, and a hint of truffle or forest floor. As it ages, tertiary aromas of leather and tobacco will emerge. The palate is structured and full-bodied, with firm, well-integrated tannins and vibrant acidity providing excellent backbone. Flavors echo the nose, with tart red fruits, savory spice, and mineral undertones. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a complex impression of fruit, earth, and elegant grip.
