The 2021 Paolo Scavino Barolo “Prapò” DOCG is a powerful and structured single-vineyard Nebbiolo from the renowned Prapò cru in Serralunga d’Alba, known for producing some of Barolo’s most age-worthy and intense wines. Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo, the 2021 vintage is highly regarded for its balance, depth and long-term ageing potential, combining concentration with precision. The nose is deep and complex, revealing dark cherry, plum and dried rose, layered with notes of spice, leather, balsamic herbs and subtle mineral nuances.
On the palate, it is full-bodied with dense, fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering concentrated dark fruit, savoury depth and a rich, structured texture. The finish is long, powerful and persistent, with impressive tension and ageing potential typical of Serralunga terroir.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a serious cru Barolo for collectors and Nebbiolo enthusiasts who appreciate structure and longevity. It will benefit from extended decanting if opened young or cellaring for 15–20+ years. Perfect with braised meats, game, truffle dishes or aged cheeses.
