Barolo, Monvigliero [Library Release 2026], 2010
Dark, muscled but silky textured and spicy. A deep brooding but smooth Barolo with notes of bramble, black cherry, cocoa and hints of nut and stone. One of the historical Cru of the Verduno commune, Scavino have a wonderful parcel of 50-year-old vines in the chalk and limestone based Monvigliero vineyard.
critic reviews
A round, supple Barolo, the 2010 Barolo Monvigliero is beautifully expressive. Today the Monvigliero is incredibly primary and intense, especially in its fruit, while the typical Monvigliero notes aren't fully developed. The 2010 is going to need some time to come together, but it is a beauty. With time in the glass some of the more floral and savory notes that are typical of this site begin to emerge, but only with great reluctance. Today the Monvigliero impresses for its texture, silkiness and exceptional overall balance.
