On Thursday, April 12, 2012 Nello Cucina is honored to have wines from the noted
Piemontese producer Pio Cesare.
Established in 1881, Pio Cesare owns more than 130 acres of vineyards. The vineyards are situated in the most favorable & better exposed regions of the area. With the belief that a great wine can come only from the most superb grapes & devotion to the highest standards, Pio Cesare’s production has always been limited. Using contemporary & time-honored winemaking techniques of the Piemonte region, the wines are appropriately aged in large casks & barriques of distinctive French oaks & bottle aged before their release.
