The 2020 Paolo Scavino Barolo “Prapò” DOCG is a powerful and structured single-vineyard Nebbiolo from the renowned Prapò cru in Serralunga d’Alba, an area celebrated for producing some of Barolo’s most age-worthy wines. Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo, the 2020 vintage combines depth, precision and balance, with critical acclaim across major wine critics. The nose is intense and layered, revealing dark cherry, fig and blackcurrant, complemented by notes of spice, leather, menthol and espresso.
On the palate, it is full-bodied with dense, fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering concentrated dark fruit, savoury complexity and a structured, powerful profile. The finish is long, firm and persistent, showcasing both elegance and ageing potential.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a standout cru Barolo for collectors and serious Nebbiolo enthusiasts, offering both intensity and refinement. Best enjoyed with extended decanting or cellared for 12–18 years. Perfect with braised meats, truffle dishes or aged cheeses.
