JAMES SUCKLING 94 POINTS - "A beautiful Barolo here with a touch of dried spices to the grapefruit citrus, minerals, camphor and dried flowers. Melted, chalky tannins on the palate with medium to full body and a long, mineral-driven finish. Lots of clarity and finesse here."
It's often best to let young Barolos unwind for at least a few more years after release, but Scavino makes this approachable early, so try it with an hour or so in the decanter and partner with savory, flavor-rich dishes!
Founded back in 1921, the winery developed into its modern form under Paolo's son, Enrico, who has in turn passed operations on to his daughters Enrica and Elisa. They inherited Enrico's openness to continual improvements in their vineyards and winemaking, and it shows in the quality of the wines today. As they have grown over the decades, they have ended up with access to one of the widest ranges of vineyards in the Barolo appellation.
