From the celebrated cru in Verduno—Barolo’s northernmost and most aromatic village—Paolo Scavino’s Monvigliero bottling is all about finesse. While the estate is known for precision and polish, their expression of Monvigliero leans into delicacy and perfume, shaped by white marl soils and a cooler microclimate.

The 2020 vintage opens with soaring aromatics: rose petal, wild strawberry, and orange peel, layered with star anise, mint, and a whisper of cedar. The palate is graceful and lifted, with fine-grained tannins and bright acidity guiding the fruit into a long, floral, mineral-tinged finish. It’s a wine that speaks softly but leaves a lasting impression—Nebbiolo in a more lyrical mode.

Aged in a combination of large casks and smaller barrels, and bottled with care to preserve the site’s inherent elegance, Scavino’s Monvigliero 2020 is already expressive, but will reward 8–15 years in the cellar. Ideal with truffle dishes, game birds, or simply a quiet moment and a decanter.

More about Paolo Scavino

Paolo Scavino founded his winery in 1921 in Castiglione Falletto, Barolo. Now Enrico runs it with his daughters—the fourth generation—working 23 hectares across 19 different Barolo crus, touching all but three communes. The house style is elegant, polished, serious. Bric Dël Fiasc (both standard and Riserva), Cannubi, Riserva Rocche dell'Annunziata: these are Barolos that reward patience. A century of learning how to make red wine the right way.

Tasting through the recent output from Paolo Scavino with Elisa Scavino is always a real delight. Each wine truly had something unique to say. Since the fruit from the family's 20 different vineyards is all vinified identically, you can really get an idea of what's going on in a particular vintage in Barolo by tasting through these site-specific bottlings.
