Join Stevie Kim on another “On the Road Edition” (found here and on the Italian Wine Podcast) where she travels to yet another winery in one of Italy’s Wine regions. Pio Cesare, located in the town of Alba, in Piemonte hosts Stevie for the day and she sits down in conversation with Federica Boffa and Cesare Benvenuto as they talk about their traditions, wines and family!
About the Winery:
Pio Cesare has been producing wines for over 135 years and through five generations in its ancient cellars in the center of the town of Alba. The Pio Cesare winery was founded in 1881, by Cesare Pio. He was a very successful entrepreneur and was inspired to produce a small and select quantity of wines from the hills of Barolo and Barbaresco for himself, his family, friends, and customers. Cesare Pio was dedicated to the terroir of the Piedmont region and to producing wines of the highest quality.
Pio Boffa, the fourth generation, leads and directs the company today. His sister’s son, Cesare Benvenuto, has been active since 2000 as the fifth generation and recently Pio Boffa’s daughter, Federica Rosy, joined Pio Cesare, representing the future of the Family.
Today, the family members travel extensively to more than 50 countries around the world, echoing what Cesare Pio himself did at the beginning of our history—promoting the name and reputation of the Pio Cesare winery to restaurants, hotels, wine shops and wine lovers worldwide.
