Since 2017 Pio Cesare produces their 'Fides' Barbera d’Alba Superiore exclusively from 60 years old vines in the Mosconi cru, in Monforte d'Alba. After fermentation in stainless still tanks the wine ages in wooden casks and a small percentage in barriques. The resulting wine is a Barbera of great concentration and structure, able to age in bottle for a very long time.
WINE SPECTATOR 92 Points - "This is bright and focused, exuding blackberry, black cherry and violet flavors. Balanced and firm on the long, fruit- and earth-tinged aftertaste. Drink now through 2025."
No.38 in the Top 100 wines of 2021.
