2021 Pio Cesare Barbera D'Alba

WINERY NOTES

Barbera 100%

Since 2017 vintage exclusively from a small selection of Barbera grapes coming from the oldest vines of our Family-owned Mosconi vineyard in Monforte d’Alba. “Fides”, or “faith” in Latin, continues to represent the great longtime faith of our Family in the Barbera grapes planted and grown in very prestigious areas. Since the 2017 vintage Fides has been enriched by “Vigna Mosconi” and “Barbera d’Alba Superiore” appellations. Vinification In stainless steel. Skin contact maceration for 30 days. Ageing Immediately after racking, for 12 months in large oak “botti”; a small amount in French oak barriques as well. Extremely low yields and a strictest grapes selection. Produced in small quantities. Full body, balance and concentration. Ripe fruit and spicy. Very long life.
