Pio Cesare Barolo Mosconi 2019 (750 ml)

Tasting Notes For Pio Cesare Barolo Mosconi 2019

The Pio Cesare Barolo Mosconi 2019 is a remarkable expression of the famed Mosconi vineyard in the Barolo region. With its deep ruby hue, this wine immediately captivates the eye. On the nose, an intricate bouquet unfolds, showcasing layers of dark fruit aromas, including blackberries and plums, intertwined with delicate hints of rose petals, licorice, and spice.

As you take the first sip, the palate is enveloped in a rich tapestry of flavors, where the dark fruits seamlessly blend with notes of tobacco, leather, and a touch of tar. The wine's well-structured tannins provide a solid framework, promising the potential for graceful aging. Balancing this intensity is a refreshing acidity that contributes to the wine's overall harmony.

The finish is both powerful and persistent, leaving an enduring impression of the wine's depth and character. The Pio Cesare Barolo Mosconi 2019 embodies the essence of the terroir and the artistry of the winemaking process, making it a true testament to the elegance and complexity of Barolo wines.

Critic Ratings

James Suckling Review - Rated 98:

The aromas of blue fruits such as raspberries and blueberries are so prevalent. Licorice. Crushed stone. Violets. Full-bodied. So classy with ultra-fine tannins that go on forever. Lovely depth of cool and focused fruit. A vivid and thoughtful wine with power and finesse. Classic in the making.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Review - Rated 96:
The Pio Cesare 2019 Barolo Mosconi (with 6,685 bottles and larger formats on the market) offers the structure and length of Nebbiolo from Monforte d'Alba. You also get a salty mineral tone or rusty iron that frames a core of wild berry and blackcurrant. The Mosconi always appears very linear and direct to me, and that special sharpness is what I like best about this vintage.

Wine Enthusiast Review - Rated 97:
Macerated raspberries combine with wild roses and crushed chalk in this evocative wine that captivates from the first sniff. Mixed cherries emerge on the palate, dusted with anise, licorice and savory herbs, wrapping up with superfine tannins that build to an extended finish that I wish would never end.

Wine Spectator Review - Rated 95:
Centered on cherry and raspberry fruit, this red is ripe yet vibrant, with a solid underlying structure. Gains depth from iron, licorice and tar notes, while a saline thread emerges on the long, intense finish. Ripe, with a sense of restraint -- an intriguing combination. Best from 2027 through 2045.

Jeb Dunnuck Review - Rated 96:
My favorite of the Pio Cesare wines at this tasting, the 2019 Barolo Mosconi displays great balance in is notes of raspberry liqueur, pressed roses, and blood orange. With fine, ripe tannins and a note of salty mineral earth, it is fresh and persistent with ripe red fruit and orange peel and is long on the palate.
