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.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 95
"The 2020 Barolo Bricco Ambrogio is a complex, alluring wine. Dried herbs, menthol, licorice, sage, mocha and lavender play off a core of purplish/black fruit. Dark and sensual, but not at all heavy, the 2020 has a ton to offer in a plush, immediate style. This is a very sexy Barolo." -Vinous

"Roddi. Lustrous mid ruby. Subtle yet concentrated on the nose with cherry fruit and fresh mint hints. Mellow, concentrated sweet-sour cherry palate with firm tannins on the finish. Ready now but needs food."

Wine Enthusiast

WE 94
"Crushed red fruits steeped in their own juices, intermingled with a blend of spices, create an inviting nose, though somewhat reserved. A hint of mint adds freshness. On the palate, warmed, spiced fruits take center stage, enveloped by the embrace of youthful and firm tannins. The fruit flavors gradually give way to a savory edge on the finish that begs for a hearty dish to accompany it."
