Description

The 2021 Paolo Scavino Barolo “Bussia-Fantini” DOCG is a refined and site-expressive Nebbiolo from the renowned Bussia cru in Monforte d’Alba, highlighting the structure and depth typical of this historic area. Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo, the 2021 vintage showcases excellent balance, aromatic precision and strong ageing potential. The nose is complex and lifted, revealing red cherry, raspberry and rose petals, layered with notes of orange peel, spice, liquorice and subtle earthy undertones.

On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with firm, finely structured tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering pure red fruit, savoury depth and well-integrated oak. The finish is long, powerful and classically dry, with impressive persistence and elegance.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a standout Barolo for those who enjoy a more structured, terroir-driven style from Bussia. Ideal for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Enjoy with decanting or cellar for 12–18 years. Perfect with braised meats, truffle dishes or aged cheeses.

About the region

Piedmont · Barolo

Piedmont, or Piemonte, sits in Italy's north-west under the Alps. Its great grape is Nebbiolo, which ripens late, is often picked in autumn fog, and reaches its fullest expression in the Langhe hills at Barolo and Barbaresco. Those wines are pale and firmly tannic when young, and turn to tar, dried rose and truffle with age. Alongside them Barbera and Dolcetto supply the everyday reds, and Moscato d'Asti the sweet, lightly sparkling whites.
