    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Smokey oak nose mixed with fine berry notes. The palate offers everything you could possibly want in a Barolo, one of the very best blended Barolos in the vintage, in fact one of the vintage's most satisfying and complete Barolos full stop. Discrete, gentle, edgy but with a degree of polish, wonderful notes of sweet spice, clear vivacious red fruits, classic tar and roses. Lively and utterly gripping. A Barolo ‘Classico’ that is a blend from five single crus in the Barolo and Castiglione region. Aged for one year in large oak ‘botti’ and one year in barriques.

    Antonio Galloni,
    Vinous
    Scavino's 2010 Barolo is supple and open, even in this vintage. Sweet red cherries, savory herbs, tobacco and mint meld together in an approachable Barolo that will drink well pretty much right out of the gate. The 2010 is all about polish, finesse and delicacy. Sweet spices and crushed flowers meld into the expressive finish. The main vineyard sites are Rocche Mariondino, Vignolo, Altenasso, Terlo, Vignano and San Bernardo. The Scavino Barolo is a wonderful lens through which to get an early sense of the vintage.
