Rich plum and blackberry saturate the palate, lifted by Barbera's signature brightness. French oak adds complexity without masking the fruit. Notes of espresso, cedar and sweet spice emerge gradually. The acidity keeps this weighty wine fresh and vibrant. Scavino's benchmark approach to elevated Barbera, drinking beautifully now.

Paolo Scavino

A Castiglione Falletto estate synonymous with single-vineyard Barolo, Paolo Scavino built its reputation on Bric dël Fiasc before expanding across some of the Langhe's most sought-after crus. Now run by the second generation, the wines remain precise, structured, and worth seeking out.
