- TASTING NOTE: Medium bodied, dark cherry and berry fruits, spice, leather, with savoury herbs and pretty florals. A bright line of acid and plenty of structure give this wine plenty of bang for its buck.
- ABOUT THE WINE: A classic Italian 'table wine' made from the younger plantings of Dolcetto, Nebbiolo and Barbera from around the Scavino Estate.
- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Paolo Scavino is an historical winery in the Barolo region. It was founded in 1921 in Castiglione Falletto by Lorenzo Scavino and his son Paolo. Farming has always been a family tradition and passion. Enrico Scavino together with the daughters Enrica and Elisa, (representing the fourth generation) run the family Estate today. Enrico started to work full time in the winery in 1951 when he was just 10 years old. Enrico straddles the modernist/traditionalist styles of Barolo, utilising native yeasts and favouring shorter macerations, but only using neutral barriques for the initial ageing period (10 months -to set colour) before transferring his wines to old large format oak for 12 months. Quality control is crucial. Scavino could make more wine—but the estate chooses to sell off from 10-30% of the production in bulk to maintain their super high standards. This small family farm—which essentially started with 5.5 hectares—now manages 29 hectares of vineyards, and regularly finds itself classified amongst the other top estates of the region.
