Noteringar:
2008-06-10 16:10 WS: Very beautiful aromas of berry, tar and rose follow through to a full-bodied palate, with fine tannins and a long finish of berry and vanilla. Very, very impressive. Polished and structured. Best after 2010. 1,000 cases made. –JS
2008-06-10 16:10 WA: The 2003 Barolo Ornato, from a vineyard in Serralunga, is a big, brooding wine loaded with scorched earth, smoke, dark fruit and plenty of toasted oak. Made in full-bodied, super-ripe style, the wine possesses outstanding depth with a note of alcoholic warmth on the finish. While not the most subtle Barolo out there, this is a very strong effort from Pio Cesare. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2023. Pio Cesare is one of the region’s historic estates. The winery’s base Barolo and Barbarescos are made in a fairly traditional style while single-vineyard wines are decidedly more contemporary expressions. In the challenging 2003 vintage, the former, which are multi-commune blends, have turned out particularly well. Importer: Maison Marques & Domaines, Oakland, CA; tel. (510) 587-2000
2008-06-10 16:10 IWC: By Stephen Tanzer Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Nov/Dec 07 ($102; this and the Barbaresco Il Bricco are now aged in about 90% new barriques Good full red. Knockout nose combines raspberry, truffle, dried flowers and smoky tobacco. Huge and voluptuous, but with superb inner-palate energy to the flavors of strawberry, minerals and porcini. This really stains the palate on the back end, finishing with very broad, fine-grained tannins. This outstanding example of 2003 will get tarry and truffley with bottle aging and really calls for a minimum of five or six years of patience. 93 points
