La Visciola's Ju Quarto Cesanese del Piglio 2022 is a silky, medium-bodied expression of this classic Roman varietal with vibrant acidity and graceful tannins characteristic of riserva-level Cesanese. On the nose, there are notes of dark cherry and plum, with subtle herbaceous undertones and hints of violet. The palate reveals layers of ripe red fruit, a charming, almost fruit roll-up like playfulness, balanced minerality, and a touch of licorice that builds toward a clean, persistent finish. The grapes are harvested from a single-vineyard parcel of 60+ year-old Cesanese vines on red clay at 300msl. ‘Ju Quarto’ is always a powerful expression of the grape, darker-fruited and with a striking similarity to Nebbiolo in Barolo. Takes several hours open to reach its peak. Fermented and aged for at least one year in concrete tanks. Unfined, unfiltered. 1500 btls total.
