From the renowned Monvigliero vineyard in the heart of Barolo, Paolo Scavino’s 2021 Barolo 'Monvigliero' is a wine that encapsulates the finesse and power of Nebbiolo in one of the region’s most celebrated vineyards. Known for producing wines of exceptional elegance, Monvigliero’s terroir provides the perfect balance of richness and delicacy, with wines that are both age-worthy and approachable in their youth.

The 2021 vintage offers an expressive bouquet of red fruit—raspberry, cherry—accompanied by floral aromas of rose and violet, which are typical of the best Barolos. Subtle earthy notes and hints of spice add complexity and depth to the wine, while the minerality of the vineyard’s soils provides structure and a refined edge. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with finely grained tannins and bright acidity that lift the fruit and enhance the wine’s freshness. The finish is long, with lingering notes of spice, floral notes, and a touch of earthiness, reflecting the purity of Monvigliero’s terroir.

Paolo Scavino’s Barolo 'Monvigliero' 2021 is a wine that will evolve beautifully with time, but it is already a joy to drink now. It pairs wonderfully with rich dishes such as roasted meats, truffles, or aged cheeses, and its complexity and finesse make it a perfect wine for those who appreciate the elegance and depth of Barolo.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2021 Barolo Monvigliero is a pretty dense wine. I don't see quite the delineation or nuance of the finest wines in this range or the best wines from this site, which leads me to believe Scavino is still getting a feel for Monvigliero. For many top producers, this would be a superb wine, but in this lineup, it's in the middle of the pack. Macerated cherry, spice, tobacco and cedar struggle to emerge fully. I hope to revisit the 2021 in a few years' time." -Antonio Galloni

"Vibrant and boasting great intensity, the compelling 2021 Monvigliero from Paolo Scavino mesmerizes with aromas of wild rose, menthol, blood orange and dark spice. Firm and elegantly structured, the delicious palate delivers crunchy red cherry, strawberry compote, pink peppercorn and licorice before a minty close. Close-grained tannins provide support. What a gorgeous wine." -Kerin O'Keefe
