    The Pio Cesare vineyard is planted on clay-limestone soils, typical of the Barbera d'Alba region. These mineral-rich soils give the grapes exceptional structure and aromatic complexity. The temperate climate, with hot summers and cold winters, promotes optimal grape ripening, resulting in a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. The vines, some several decades old, are carefully cultivated to ensure consistent quality and controlled yields.

    Owner and history

    Currently managed by the fifth generation of the Cesare family, the Pio Cesare estate is driven by an unwavering passion for winemaking. Drawing on a rich heritage and expertise passed down through generations, the owners are committed to producing authentic wines that tell the story of their land. Their vision blends tradition and modernity, guaranteeing exceptional wines that are recognized and appreciated worldwide.

    Vinification and aging

    The vinification of the 2019 Fides Barbera d'Alba follows traditional methods, combining respect for the grape varieties with technical innovations. After a manual harvest, the grapes are carefully sorted before being destemmed and crushed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, allowing for the extraction of the berries' aromatic richness. Aging in oak barrels lasts several months to refine the tannins and add complexity to the wine, while preserving the characteristic freshness of Barbera.
