{"product_id":"pio-cesare-barolo-ornato","title":"Pio Cesare Barolo 'Ornato'","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Pio Cesare family’s unique winemaking method stresses minimal intervention to produce wines of particularly supple flavor expression. A ceaseless devotion to the individuality of each of the region’s wines informs Pio Cesare's choices in the cellar: shorter maceration, separate lot fermentation, judicious selection for barrel and large cask aging, and bottling schedules determined by the ideal structure of each wine. This allows Pio Cesare to craft wines of varying weight, ageability and drinkability as determined by the vineyard rather than market fashion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine has great structure and concentration, with ripe fruit, soft tannins and tobacco. May be enjoyed upon release, but will reward time in the cellar. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e98 Points - James Suckling\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is very focused with lots of ripe tannins in the center palate. Very velvety and fine-textured with a pointed character. Medium to full body. Aromas of plums and spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg to the fruit. Bitter citrus. Chewy at the end. Taut muscles. Sophisticated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e96 Points - Decanter\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrnato has been the Pio Cesare estate's cru since 1985. In 2020, the grapes were harvested on 5 October, after the heavy rainfall. Mineral and smoky, with intense violet notes alongside cherry kernel and rhubarb, it's full of graphite flavour and almost zestiness on the palate, supported by tight-knit tannins. Polished and thick on the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e94 Points - Jeb Dunnuck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"300171 - Vendemmia International Wines Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43139045785687,"sku":"359703","price":213.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2479\/4148\/files\/10960707-Pio-Cesare-Barolo-Ornato-2020.jpg?v=1778594606","url":"https:\/\/zyn.ca\/products\/pio-cesare-barolo-ornato","provider":"ZYN THE WINE MARKET LTD.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
