Named in honor of the ancient Celtic tribes that roamed the rolling hills of Piedmont long before the Romans established their vineyards, the Terra dei Celti Barolo Podere del Pesco is a profound tribute to the deep-rooted history of the Langhe region. Sourced from estate vineyards where the soils are rich in clay, limestone, and marl, this classic Barolo is crafted entirely from Nebbiolo grapes. The winemaking process respects time-honored Piedmontese traditions, featuring extended skin contact during fermentation to extract the grape's signature structure and complex aromatic precursors, followed by patient aging in oak casks. The result is a majestic red wine that balances intense Nebbiolo tannins with a delicate bouquet of dried roses, dark cherries, leather, and earthy forest floor, capturing the wild and noble spirit of its ancestral namesake.

Their signature expression, the Barolo Podere del Pesco, is made from meticulously selected Nebbiolo grapes, undergoing traditional long maceration and extensive oak aging to yield a complex profile of dark cherry, leather, and refined tannins.
