The 2020 Paolo Scavino Barolo DOCG is a refined and approachable expression of Nebbiolo from one of Barolo’s leading estates, offered in a convenient half-bottle format perfect for early enjoyment or smaller servings. Sourced from a blend of carefully selected vineyards across the Barolo region, it reflects Scavino’s signature style of elegance, purity and precision. The nose is fresh and aromatic, revealing red cherry, strawberry and rose petals, complemented by hints of spice, liquorice and subtle earthy notes.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine, structured tannins and vibrant acidity, showing bright red fruit, savoury complexity and well-integrated oak. The finish is long, balanced and classically dry, with excellent ageing potential.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent introduction to Barolo in a more accessible format, ideal for customers seeking a structured yet drinkable Nebbiolo. Enjoy with decanting or cellar for 8–10 years. Perfect with braised meats, truffle dishes or aged cheeses.
