2020 Paolo Scavino Barolo 'Prapò' DOCG Magnum (1500ml)

The 2020 Paolo Scavino Barolo ‘Prapò’ DOCG Magnum (1500ml) is a distinguished single-vineyard Barolo sourced from the renowned Prapò cru in Serralunga d’Alba, one of the region’s most respected sites for structured and age-worthy Nebbiolo. Produced by the Scavino family, this wine captures the power and precision for which the vineyard is known, while the magnum format allows for slower maturation and exceptional cellaring potential.

On the palate, it is deep and beautifully structured, with flavours of black cherry, raspberry and red currant layered with notes of rose petal, dried herbs, iron, leather and spice. Fine yet firm tannins provide impressive architecture, while vibrant acidity keeps the wine focused and energetic. Hints of menthol, earth and savoury complexity emerge with time in the glass, leading to a long, persistent finish that balances elegance with power.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding choice for collectors seeking a classic Serralunga Barolo with both pedigree and longevity. The magnum format makes it particularly attractive for long-term cellaring, allowing the wine to evolve gradually over time. While approachable with extended decanting, it is best enjoyed from 2028 onwards and will continue to develop for 20 years or more. Pair with braised beef, truffle dishes, slow-cooked lamb, venison or aged Parmigiano Reggiano.
