A bright, fruity style, with strawberry and cherry flavors framed by eucalyptus, briar and white pepper accents. Firm and vibrant, showing good equilibrium on the lingering finish. Best from 2018 through 2032.

Paolo Scavino is an estate in Barolo known for its polished, elegant red wines from the Nebbiolo grape variety. The estate owns 23 hectares (57 acres) entirely within Barolo with parcels in 19 different cru vineyards in several different communes. The range of seven Barolo wines is led by the Bric Dël Fiasc (from the Fiasco cru in Castiglione Falletto), the Cannubi and the Riserva Rocche dell'Annunziata which is aged for an additional year both in large casks and in bottle, and is sourced from a cru vineyard in La Morra.
The company was founded in 1921 in Castiglione Falleto by Lorenzo Scavino and his son Paolo. Enrico Scavino has been working in the winery since the age of ten, beginning in 1951. He now runs his estate with his daughters, who are the fourth generation.
